This bill aims to prevent states and local governments from implementing certain pre-trial release policies by prohibiting the provision of federal funding to those that permit release based on personal recognizance or an unsecured appearance bond . These practices are commonly referred to as "cashless bail." The legislation specifies that no covered grant program funds shall be made available to jurisdictions employing these methods. The Attorney General is mandated to annually identify any state or local government utilizing these pre-trial release methods and then provide this list to federal agencies. Within 90 days of receiving such a list, these agencies must terminate funding from various covered grant programs to the identified jurisdictions. Funding can be reinstated if a jurisdiction is subsequently removed from the Attorney General's list, signaling a change in their pre-trial release policies.
