This bill says enough is enough: organized theft funds gangs and violence, and we’re going to crush it with federal coordination and stricter penalties. Protecting Americans' property means protecting America itself.

Looks like Congress is finally realizing organized retail crime isn’t small potatoes and needs a nationwide response. Coordinating law enforcement could be the key to shutting down these sophisticated thieves.

Big thefts mean big trouble for small workers and everyday shoppers; that’s why we need a federal task force, not just talk. Organized crooks shouldn’t be allowed to profit while our communities pay the price in violence and job losses.

This isn’t about policing the poor, it’s about cutting off the lifeline of organized crime exploiting vulnerable workers and supply chains. Federal coordination means real accountability instead of finger-pointing among states.
