Trump To Target Cashless Bail In New Executive Order—
President Donald Trump will reportedly sign an executive order on Monday ending cashless bail.
According to the New York Post, the Trump administration will threaten to remove federal funding for jurisdictions that do not comply.
“Cashless bail policies allow dangerous individuals to immediately return to the streets and further endanger law-abiding, hard-working Americans because they know our laws will not be enforced,” a White House memo states.
President Trump spoke out about cashless bail last month in a Truth Social post, writing: “Crime in American Cities started to significantly rise when they went to CASHLESS BAIL. The WORST criminals are flooding our streets and endangering even our great law enforcement officers. It is a complete disaster, and must be ended, IMMEDIATELY!”
