AB 2749: Crimes: loitering.

California · Assembly · 2025–2026 Regular Session · last verified April 9, 2026

What AB 2749 does, verified April 9, 2026

<p>This bill aims to change the way loitering with the intent to purchase commercial sex is defined as a crime. Under the current law, a person is guilty of loitering if they act in a way that openly demonstrates their intention to purchase commercial sex. The proposed law would require a more direct action, such as making a phone call or sending a text message, to prove that a person has the intent to purchase commercial sex. This change would help to make it clearer when someone's actions demonstrate their intention to commit a crime.</p>
