Measures To End Cashless Bail and Enforce the Law in the District of Columbia

This EO directs federal agencies to take all lawful steps to halt cashless bail policies in Washington, D.C., prioritizing the pretrial detention of criminal suspects who pose a threat to public safety and encouraging federally-supported charges and custody whenever possible. Additionally, it instructs the Attorney General and executive departments to review existing police and judicial practices, and to use available administrative and budgetary actions to press D.C. to restore cash bail for offenders considered dangerous.
