Business Groups Join Together for Retail Theft Initiative

Several business groups including BOMA California, California Business Properties Association, California Business Roundtable, and more have come together for the Retail Theft Initiative. The initiative will address the growing issue of retail theft, organized retail crime, and tackle the scourge of fentanyl. It also aims to encourage the Legislature to finally address some of the issues that it can through statutory action which it has been unable to do through the last two legislative sessions.  Additionally, this issue aims to fix issues with Prop. 47.
