AI-generated plain-language summary

This measure would have limited California's "Three Strikes" law by requiring that the third strike be a serious or violent felony, rather than any felony, while maintaining life sentences for third strikes involving specified sex crimes against children. It would have allowed some inmates previously sentenced under the existing Three Strikes law to petition for resentencing under the revised standards.
