FISCAL NOTE
There is no financial impact. No fiscal impact is expected as the statute is designed as a deterrent. Prosecution
under this section is expected to be rare and incarceration unlikely. Therefore, it is anticipated that law
enforcement agencies, prosecutors, and the courts could accommodate any prosecution under this section
under their existing budgets.
