Rioting could lead to federal racketeering charges
This bill would make rioting a federal racketeering activity. This means people who engage in rioting could face tougher federal charges under laws designed for organized crime. Currently, rioting is not included in these specific federal racketeering laws.
Today, federal law does not list rioting as a "racketeering activity." If this bill passes, rioting would be added to that list, allowing federal prosecutors to use powerful anti-racketeering laws against those involved.
