Charlie Beck, LAPD Chief, and other law enforcement authorities supported Senate Bill 962 as a means to respond to increasing smartphone theft incidents.
In the past, the legislation had failed a Senate vote, but Senator Mark Leno agreed making amendments such as leaving out electronic tablets and delaying the date kill switches will be mandatory in new phones, from January to July 2015. This resulted to Microsoft and Apple dropping their opposition of the said bill. Moreover, five Democrats changed their votes to back the bill.
