Prohibits federal funds for jurisdictions that eliminate cash bail for certain offenses.
The bill prohibits federal funds from being made available to jurisdictions that substantially eliminate cash bail for covered offenses, including crimes of violence, sex offenses, and other criminal acts. The Attorney General must determine which jurisdictions have eliminated cash bail and make these determinations publicly available. Federal funds can only resume for a jurisdiction 180 days after the Attorney General determines it no longer substantially eliminates cash bail for a covered offense.
