Proposition 47 was passed by Democrats in 2014 and, in part, reduced the crime of shoplifting to a misdemeanor if the amount of goods stolen was less than $950, KGET reported.
“Enough is enough, we need to fight back against the criminals who are stealing from our communities,” California Assemblyman Rudy Salas said when he announced the amendment on Jan. 3.
“We have seen the unintended consequences of Prop 47’s weakening of our theft laws and I believe California voters are ready to make their voices heard on this issue again,” Salas told reporters.
