California Republicans are calling for an end to what they say are the state’s soft-on-crime policies. Speaking at the State Capitol Monday, Assembly Republican leader James Gallagher introduced a public safety bill package that would provide resources to law enforcement and victims.

Gallagher says the recent wave of crime is hurting Californians’ quality of life.

GOP lawmakers are demanding an increase in penalties for serial shoplifters, more information sharing between state and local law enforcement to get illegal guns off the streets, restricting judges from dismissing firearms enhancements and giving victims a voice at court proceedings in their cases.
