Dear John,

Illinois recently became the first state in the nation to completely
eliminate cash bail and after just three months — the policy is working
very well!

➡️ Jail populations are down.

➡️ Crime rates haven’t gone up.

➡️ And the system that provides more information to judges before they
make decisions on releasing people before trial is running smoothly.

📢 📢 📢 [ [link removed] ]With our opponents working hard to claim that ending cash bail is
dangerous, we need to GET LOUD! Please READ this article from Illinois
Times and SHARE with your loved ones and everyone in your network who
cares about justice.

Cash bail has been a penalty on poverty, disproportionately affecting
Black, brown, and poor people for generations. And now in Illinois, the
release of people pre-trial will be based on community safety instead of
wealth — creating a more equitable system. ⁠

This victory is proof that despite the attacks from GOP mega-donors,
police unions, and other powerful actors, they cannot stop our momentum
for a fairer system.

Here at Real Justice PAC, we have helped elect dozens justice champions
into District Attorney and other local prosecutor offices since 2017 —
including Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx, whose leadership and
vision helped drive the movement to end cash bail in Illinois.

We are not going to slow down anytime soon, and will be announcing our
2024 endorsements in the coming days and weeks.

The tide is turning, the world is watching, and we will continue to fight
hard and elect justice champions who are committed to turning the dream of
real justice into reality.⁠
