2025 ASSEMBLY BILL 932
January 28, 2026 - Introduced by Law Revision Committee. Referred to Committee on Rules.

An Act to amend 165.845 (1r) (a) 1., 939.632 (1) (e) 1. and 939.632 (1) (e) 3. of the statutes; relating to: fixing a cross-reference in a definition of “violent crime” and updating terminology to reflect changes in the Federal Bureau of Investigation (suggested as remedial language by the Department of Justice).

Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Current law contains a definition of the term “violent crime” for the purposes of the crime of committing a violent crime in a school zone. The definition is parsed into a list of felonies and a list of misdemeanors. Under current law, one crime appears in the incorrect list; it is a felony but is listed as a misdemeanor. This bill moves the errant reference from the list of misdemeanors to the list of felonies.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation collects crime data from law enforcement agencies. The FBI used to use a program called the system of uniform crime reports. Beginning in January 2021, the FBI’s National Incident-Based Reporting System became the national standard. This bill updates terminology to reflect that change.
