Bill overview
The Flight Risk Reduction Act modifies federal law regarding the detention of defendants awaiting trial. Specifically, it establishes a presumption that non-U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents pose a greater risk of danger to the community and flight. This presumption could lead to longer detention periods before trial, but it can be challenged with strong evidence. The bill aims to increase security measures by focusing on potential flight risks.
