Summary

The resolution would change the state constitution so a judge can refuse bail for a person charged with a felony if the prosecutor shows clear and convincing evidence that the person is a danger to the community or a flight risk. It also creates a presumption of danger for felonies labeled as dangerous or violent, which the defendant can challenge. Additionally, it allows financially‑unable defendants to request a speedy court order relieving them from posting bond.
