Summary

The bill would stop judges from setting cash bail for most arrestees unless they show clear evidence of flight risk, danger, or the charge is murder or treason, or the person is already on supervised release. It also requires any bail set to be the minimum needed, taking the defendant’s ability to pay into account. The goal is to make pre‑trial release more fair and reduce unnecessary detention.
