Senate Bill 553, which was submitted by State Senator Dave Cortese, has been passed by the State Senate and will now progress to policy committees in the State Assembly. Cortese hopes the proposed law will prevent workplace violence and protect staff from being forced by their employers to step-in during robberies. But some store bosses are furious about the plans, with the California Retailers Association mocking the move as an open invitation for thieves "to come in and steal."

So we went from stopping crime to promoting crime? I suggest that they make murder legal next so I can start playing Texas Ranger

If I owned a retail shop in California, I would close shop the day this law is passed.

It's unconstitutional for a government to incentivize crime.

I'd say it's a violation to your shareholders if you don't close up shop.

I heard that Gavin Newsom balked at the idea. I don’t know if he killed it or not.

Lower the penalty down to a fine that can be paid by mail.
