It took a statewide movement to #EndMoneyBail in Illinois. Today, communities all across Illinois came together to mark this historic moment. Events celebrating the Pretrial Fairness Act took place in Chicago, Joliet, Rockford & Springfield!
Tomorrow, Illinois implements the Pretrial Fairness Act and becomes the first state in the country to completely end the use of money bail, one of the most blatant racial and economic injustices in our criminal legal system. Read our statement here: endmoneybond.org/2023/09/17/the…
