No Bail Post-Jail Act
United States119th CongressHR-5413House of Representatives
Updated: Sep 16, 2025
Summary
This bill seeks to amend federal law regarding pretrial release, specifically section 3142(e) of title 18, United States Code. It introduces new provisions that would automatically deem certain individuals a danger to the safety of the community , thereby making them ineligible for release before trial. Under these proposed changes, a person would be denied pretrial release if they are charged with a felony offense and are an adult or charged as an adult. A critical condition for denial is having a prior felony conviction for a crime of violence that resulted in the individual serving a minimum of 30 days in a State or Federal correctional facility, explicitly excluding any period of pretrial detention without conviction.
