The offense of coercing, inducing, or soliciting membership concerns which groups?

• A. Foreign Terrorist Organization
• B. Criminal Street Gang or Foreign Terrorist Organization
• C. Criminal Street Gang
• D. Any organization

Answer: (B)

The offense targets recruiting or pressuring someone to join groups that present serious public safety concerns: domestic criminal street gangs and foreign terrorist organizations. The law is written to prohibit coercing, inducing, or soliciting membership in either of these two types of groups, recognizing that both can involve criminal activity or violence. Therefore, the best answer includes both categories. Choosing only one category would ignore part of the statute’s scope, while labeling it as applicable to any organization would be too broad and not aligned with the specific groups the law targets.
