Summary
This bill amends the federal carjacking statute to broaden the scope of conduct that constitutes a federal carjacking offense. It removes the requirement that a carjacker act 'with the intent to cause death or serious bodily harm' from the general definition, replacing it with a 'knowingly' standard that would apply to a wider range of carjacking conduct. The bill preserves the heightened intent requirement only for the enhanced penalty provision when death results from a carjacking.
