Why this petition matters

Started by Philip Nowlan

The recent bond reduction of 62% offered to former president Donald J Trump by the New York Southern district courts has raised questions about equality and fairness in our justice system. This petition calls for a similar reduction to be applied across all bonds, ensuring equal protection under the law as promised by our Constitution. In 2020, over 60% of pretrial detainees in New York were unable to afford their bail (source: Prison Policy Initiative). By reducing all bonds by a similar percentage, we can ensure that justice is not only served but also accessible to everyone regardless of their financial status. Sign this petition if you believe in fair and equal treatment for all citizens within our judicial system.
