Judiciary Committee Increases Regulations on Pawnshops

The Senate Committee on the Judiciary held debates over Senate Bill 512, which would increase regulations on pawnshops, Wednesday afternoon.

The proposed legislation would require pawnshops to have video surveillance archived for minimum of 30 days. Many senators expressed concerns of this subsection of the bill. The original language had a minimum of 60 days, but Senator Boso proposed an amendment to drop the requirement to 30 days instead; which did pass.

After continued debate, the bill was passed by the Committee and will be reported to the full Senate to be voted upon.
