This bill, by amending Section 215 of the Penal Code, increases the potential prison sentence for carjacking, which is defined as the forceful or fearful taking of a motor vehicle from a person or their immediate presence with the intent to deprive them of possession. Specifically, the punishment for carjacking would be raised from 3, 5, or 9 years to 4, 6, or 10 years in state prison, while also updating the language to use gender-neutral pronouns.
