No Bailouts for Cashless Bail Jurisdictions Act

This Act may be cited as the No Bailouts for Cashless Bail Jurisdictions Act.
No Federal funds may be made available to a jurisdiction that the Attorney General determines has substantially eliminated cash bail as a potential condition of pretrial release from custody for a covered offense.
Not later than 30 days after the date of enactment of this Act, and not less than quarterly thereafter, the Attorney General shall make determinations on which jurisdictions have substantially eliminated cash bail for a covered offense and shall make such determinations, and an explanation of each determination, publicly available.
A jurisdiction that the Attorney General determines has substantially eliminated cash bail for a covered offense may begin receiving Federal funds on the later of—
180 days after the date on which the Attorney General first determines the jurisdiction has substantially eliminated cash bail for a covered offense; or
the date on which the Attorney General determines that the jurisdiction no longer substantially eliminated cash bail for a covered offense.
