This week, Assemblymember Juan Alanis, Vice Chair of the Assembly Public Safety Committee joined the Chair of the Committee, Assemblymember Jones-Sawyer, in requesting the Little Hoover Commission investigate retail theft, shoplifting, and organized retail theft in California, and publish a report detailing its findings. This effort unified members of both houses and both parties in a single letter to the Commission detailing the need for this information.
“I set out early to build relationships across every aisle and every wing of the Capitol,” said Assemblymember Alanis. “This letter to the Commission, which has now been signed by a majority of both houses, is the culmination of weeks of intense conversations I have had with my colleagues on Proposition 47 and the feedback I have received from the communities and businesses back home.”
