What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, it is a Class I felony to damage or graffiti certain vehicles,

highways, common carrier property, grand juror property, and state-owned

historical property. This bill makes it a Class I felony to damage or graffiti any

structure, plaque, statue, painting, or other monument of commemorative or

historical significance that is on public property or is maintained by the state or any

county or municipality.

Because this bill creates a new crime or revises a penalty for an existing crime,

the Joint Review Committee on Criminal Penalties may be requested to prepare a

report.
