HB 3337 & HB 3856 — Retail Theft Reform

House Bills 3337 and 3856 (HB3337/HB3856) increase the property value threshold for felony theft, retail theft, and criminal damage to property. HB3337 increases the threshold for theft and retail theft to $2,000 and changes the criminal history enhancements. HB3856 increases the threshold for theft, retail theft, and criminal damage of property to $2,500. These threshold increases would result in fewer felony convictions and fewer admissions to the Illinois Department of Corrections (IDOC) and an increase in misdemeanor convictions.
