Sacramento, CA...Yesterday, Assembly Bill 924 authored by Assemblyman Frank Bigelow (R-O’Neals) was signed by Governor Jerry Brown and will become law next year. “In California, there has been a rise in livestock theft resulting in significant costs to California’s ranchers. AB 924 is intended to discourage criminals from these costly crimes,” Bigelow said. “AB 924 ensures that criminals will be prosecuted and the roadmap to prosecution is the law is violated.

The Malfunctioning U.S. Government ~ From Sabrina Julian Investment Services |
