Purposes and Intent<br \/>\nThis measure will reform laws that have dramatically increased homelessness, drug addiction, and theft throughout California.<br \/>\nThis measure will:<br \/>\nA. Provide drug and mental health treatment for people who are addicted to hard drugs such as fentanyl, cocaine, heroin, and methamphetamine.<br \/>\nB. Add fentanyl to existing laws that prohibit the possession of hard drugs while armed with a loaded firearm.<br \/>\nC. Add fentanyl to existing laws that prohibit the trafficking of large quantities of hard<br \/>\ndrugs.<br \/>\nD. Permit judges to use their discretion to sentence drug dealers to state prison instead of county jail when they are convicted of trafficking hard drugs in large quantities or are armed with a firearm while engaging in drug trafficking.<br \/>\nE. Warn convicted hard drug dealers and manufacturers that they can be charged with murder if they continue to traffic in hard drugs and someone dies as a result.<br \/>\nF. Reinstate penalties for hard drug dealers whose trafficking kills or seriously injures a drug user.<br \/>\nG. Increase penalties for people who repeatedly engage in theft.<br \/>\nH. Add new laws to address the increasing problem of &#8220;smash and grab&#8221; thefts that result in significant losses and damage, or that are committed by multiple thieves working together.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>An evaluation by the California Legislative Analyst, which does its job reasonably straight, is available <a href=\"https:\/\/lao.ca.gov\/BallotAnalysis\/Initiative\/2023-017\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Pay no attention to the Attorney General behind the curtain.
