🚨 Stronger Protections Against Organized Retail Crime 🚨Thank you to Representative David Faulkner and Senator Andrew Jones for their leadership and support of Act 2026-515.This important legislation strengthens Alabama’s fight against Organized Retail Crime and establishes tougher penalties for those who endanger lives and property.
