SB 1210: Gang databases.

California · Senate · 2025–2026 Regular Session · last verified June 1, 2026

What SB 1210 does, verified June 1, 2026

The bill aims to amend existing laws related to criminal gangs in California. It would remove the term "shared gang database" and make the provisions applicable to all gang databases, regardless of whether they are accessed by external agencies or individuals. This change would broaden the scope of the law to include all gang databases, not just those shared among law enforcement agencies. The bill would also introduce new regulations for gang databases, which would take effect on January 1, 2027. These regulations would ensure that all gang databases are regulated and overseen by the Department of Justice.
