Creates domestic terrorism designation and criminal penalties.

The bill creates a new state process to designate organizations as domestic or foreign terrorist groups. This designation triggers criminal penalties, corporate dissolution, and school funding restrictions.

Courts are prohibited from enforcing religious or foreign law that conflicts with state constitutional rights. This change applies to all adjudicatory proceedings involving such laws.
