President Donald Trump is set to sign an executive order today that will put pressure on jurisdictions to eliminate cashless bail policies. The order, expected to be signed by Attorney General Pam Bondi, will require a list of jurisdictions with cashless bail policies to be provided to the president.
Areas that do not comply with the order may face consequences such as the revocation of federal funding or government-backed project approvals. The move comes as part of the administration's efforts to address what they see as a flawed system that allows suspects to be released from custody without posting bail.
