Bill overview
The True Justice Act of 2025 aims to improve legal representation for individuals involved in criminal proceedings after an arrest. It authorizes the Attorney General to provide grants to states, local governments, and public defender offices to offer legal services and training to public defenders and court-appointed attorneys. The bill also establishes a process for applying for these grants and considers factors like the cost of technology, training, and the size of the justice system when determining funding amounts. Ultimately, the bill reinforces the right to counsel established in Gideon v. Wainwright.
