CRIME: Provides relative to wearing masks in public (RE SEE FISC NOTE GF EX)
Read second time by title and referred to the Committee on Judiciary C.
Summary
The bill changes the language in the criminal statute on wearing masks in public, replacing “charged with a felony” with “convicted of a felony.” This raises the standard for prosecution, so only those who have been found guilty of a felony can be subject to the mask‑wearing restriction. The amendment seeks to limit the scope of the law to individuals with a proven felony conviction.
