Arizona law makes a cargo theft task force depend on funding

The Attorney General must establish a cargo theft task force. The task force focuses on cargo offenses involving goods moving in, making up, or affecting interstate or intrastate commerce, including goods temporarily stored in the supply chain. The Legislature must provide funding before the Attorney General is required to establish the task force. The Attorney General must invite federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies to participate.

The Attorney General must report on the task force’s activities. The Attorney General sends the report to the Governor, Senate President, and House Speaker, and provides a copy to the Secretary of State. The report must cover the listed information to the extent it applies. The first report is due by July 1, 2027, and another is due each year after that.
