Another day, another brazen retail looting of a Walgreens in San Francisco last night. Weak state theft laws, stripped of meaningful consequences, embolden the depraved and fuel the decay of CA. The only way to fix this is at the ballot box. #California #Crime #RetailTheft
Fentanyl is openly sold on the streets near California’s Capitol for $1.50/pill. Same scene in SF, LA, SD & more. CA leads the nation in fentanyl deaths, homelessness and retail theft. Ignoring the connections is malpractice. #Homelessness #RetailTheft #Fentanyl #FixProp47

The theft laws in CA are so weak that brazen criminals steal right in front of store security. Meanwhile, consumers suffer higher prices and stores are forced to close due to crime. Progressive reforms (Prop 47) went too far. #California #Crime #RetailTheft
Retail theft is rampant in CA because broken laws treat repeat offenders, no matter how many times they steal, the same as low level first time offenders. It’s not fair and it’s not working. There is a common sense plan to fix it. #California #Crime #RetailTheft #FixProp47
Retail theft and smash-and-grab robberies persist across the U-S, with thieves making off with thousands of dollars in merchandise. @Christinaxnews #retailtheft
Once upon a time in California, shoppers could browse, handle & compare products & immediately choose their items to purchase. Those days are gone for most urban areas of CA. Some still remember “the before time.” #California #AllLockedUp

Retail crime is not just an inconvenience. It's bad for business & an issue of safety - and the perception of safety - for workers, owners, & the public. The Select Committee on Retail Theft is ready to get to work. #retailtheft #retailcrime #shoplifting #organizedcrime #caleg
Weak theft laws in CA have fueled rampant thievery, driven up prices, caused store closures & inconvenienced all of us! #California #RetailTheft #FixProp47 casafecommunities.com
In-N-Out just closed its only location in Oakland due to crime. Meanwhile, CA has the highest unemployment rate in the nation. CA also leads the nation in homelessness and retail theft. It’s all connected. #California #Crime #RetailTheft #FixProp47
The hard truth is that many more thieves need to go to prison for brazen stealing from grocers and other retailers, especially when they are recidivists or they use any type of force. #RetailTheft #Grocers #Raleys #FixProp47
Retail theft is unacceptable. Thank you, Speaker Robert Rivas, for forming the Select Committee on Retail Theft! I'm looking forward to working with Assemblyman Juan Alanis and other committee members to solve this problem. #retailtheft #retailcrime #shoplifting

Retail theft is so bad in CA that retailers are now locking up socks & underwear. Weak laws eliminated meaningful accountability & deterrence for thieves. The woke celebrate fewer criminals in jail while the rest of us pay for decay. #California #Crime #RetailTheft #FixProp47

Joined Speaker Robert Rivas and colleagues for the Californians Together Against Retail Crime press conference. I’m in strong support of this balanced package of bipartisan bills to address the rise in organized #retailtheft . It’s time to protect our communities and small businesses.
TY L.A. Area Chamber for inviting me to speak about our new Select Committee on Retail Theft. Business owners, workers, and consumers are all impacted by the surge in retail crime. It's time to get to work. #retailcrime #retailtheft #caleg
