Bill overview
This bill requires the Department of Justice to create and publish a public list of states and local governments that have eliminated the use of cash bail for individuals facing criminal charges. Specifically, it focuses on jurisdictions that allow defendants to be released on personal recognizance or an unsecured appearance bond, particularly for offenses considered to pose a significant threat to public safety, such as violent crimes or property destruction. The goal is to increase transparency regarding how states and localities handle pretrial release and to ensure accountability in the application of bail policies. This legislation responds to a previous executive order from 2025.
