Original Note:
California reduced the penalties for all theft crimes including loot to a misdemeanor if under $950 with Prop 47 in 2013 that Gavin Newsom supported. In 2024, voters repealed much of that with Prop 36. Governor Newsom campaigned against Prop 36. https://calmatters.org/justice/2024/11/retail-theft-proposition-36-election/ https://calmatters.org/politics/elections/2024/07/gavin-newsom-crime-measure/
