Overturning new bail rules in Missouri

An administrative decision by the Missouri Supreme Court has moved us into the direction of the chaos that has ensued in New York after they essentially banned cash bail.

Rep.  Justin Hill has introduced a bill that would overturn similar bail rules that the Missouri Supreme Court unilaterally adopted.

A hearing is set to take place today in the Missouri House.

Jeffrey Clayton, Executive Director of the American Bail Coalition, will be in Jefferson City supporting the legislation.

Clayton joins the show to explain how important it is to support House Bill 1937.
