Lead negotiator defends Safe-T Act

Illinois' elimination of cash bail at the first of the year is stirring political debate across the state.

 

The bill, authored by the Illinois Legislative Black Caucus and approved by the Illinois General Assembly, also brings significant changes to law enforcement training and accountability.
