The bill proposes amendments to the punishment for organized retail crimes by modifying existing legal language in the General Laws. Specifically, it amends Section 30D of chapter 266 to include the option of incarceration in the house of correction for not more than 2 years, in addition to the current penalties. This change is reflected in two separate instances within the section, enhancing the legal framework for addressing organized retail crimes.

Additionally, the bill amends Section 26 of chapter 218 by inserting the reference to "thirty D," which likely pertains to the newly amended Section 30D. These changes aim to strengthen the legal consequences for organized retail crimes and ensure that the law is up-to-date with current enforcement practices.
