## Summary

**Creates a federal coordination center to fight organized retail and supply chain crime.** The bill would also widen federal theft and money‑laundering laws so prosecutors can target organized groups that steal, traffic, or resell goods across state or international lines. - Retailers and supply chains would get a single federal hub for information sharing, training, and technical assistance. The Center would be set up within 90 days and must publish annual trend reports. - Federal, state, and local law enforcement would gain a centralized office inside the Department of Homeland Security with a Director and a Deputy who rotates every 2 years among the FBI, Secret Service, or Postal Inspection Service. The Center would allow detailees from multiple agencies and would terminate after 7 years. - People committing organized retail crime would face broader federal exposure because the bill expands theft and shipment offenses to cover interstate or foreign commerce, adds an aggregate $5,000 threshold over a 12 month period, and brings money orders, prepaid cards, and gift cards into money‑laundering rules.
