The bill amends Title 18 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, specifically addressing the offense of terrorism under Section 2717. The key change involves the grading and penalty for individuals convicted of terrorism-related violent offenses. Previously, the maximum term of imprisonment for a first-degree felony was capped at 40 years. The new language modifies this to allow for a maximum term of life imprisonment, thereby increasing the potential penalties for such offenses.

Additionally, the bill maintains the provision that individuals convicted under this section may also face fines of up to $100,000. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
