What ABX 112 does, verified February 2, 2026

The bill aims to amend the state's penal code to strengthen laws related to looting during emergencies. It would make looting punishable as a felony if committed through a second-degree burglary or grand theft, increasing the severity of the crime. Additionally, it would define petty theft committed during emergencies as looting, punishable by one year in county jail or as a felony. The bill also prohibits impersonating a peace officer, firefighter, or government employee during emergencies, with penalties for those who do so.
