South Carolina Street Gang and Criminal Enterprise Prevention and Anti-Racketeering Act

Senator Malloy proposes the following amendment (SJ-154.MB0006S):

Amend the bill, as and if amended, by deleting SECTIONS 1, 2, and 3.

Amend the bill further, by striking SECTION 5 and inserting:

SECTION 5. The General Assembly finds that the sections presented in this act constitute one subject as required by Article III, Section 17 of the South Carolina Constitution, in particular finding that each change and each topic relates directly to or in conjunction with other sections to the subject of criminal enterprise prevention and associated anti-racketeering provisions as clearly enumerated in the title. The General Assembly further finds that a common purpose or relationship exists among the sections, representing a potential plurality but not disunity of topics, notwithstanding that reasonable minds might differ in identifying more than one topic contained in the act.
