Bill overview
This bill proposes to expand the definition of ‘racketeering activity’ under U.S. law. Specifically, it would include rioting as a crime that can be categorized as racketeering. This means that individuals involved in riots could potentially face the same penalties as those involved in traditional racketeering schemes. The goal is to provide federal authorities with a broader tool to prosecute serious disruptive events.
