Please read this important new report from the Illinois Network for Pretrial Justice! If you've heard about "the purge law," then you've seen this misinformation at work.
There are also excellent examples here of the role media can play in exposing the truth!
We are excited to release a new report today outlining how opponents of pretrial justice reforms in Illinois have weaponized misinformation and spread fear about the end of money bond.
Read the report:

More lying and fear mongering. Smh!
Leader Durkin is lying, the SAFE-T Act does not require counties to raise property taxes to fund the criminal legal system after eliminating money bail. endmoneybond.org/2022/10/05/…

The Pretrial Fairness Act ends money bond & reforms Illinois’ pretrial system. Conservatives & some law enforcement officials have pushed lies to confuse the public and preserve mass incarceration.
We’ve put their lies under a microscope to help you separate fact from fiction.
