looks to me this will give the judges the power to decide who can buy their way out of jail until the trial.
In many areas this can be a death sentence , as some county jails are as bad as prisons.
This could turn out bad for illegals who post bail and flee ...assuming leftwing judges don't want to help them escape.

In a state that recently gave a woman 2 months in jail for murdering her husband...who was a city mayor...we can only conclude this is more power the corrupt legal system doesn't need.


This is going to Jerry Brown's desk , if Moonbeam can form another "X" it will become law

I have never liked the idea of bail. You shouldn’t have to pay extortion money to get your freedom back before you ever even had a trial to prove your innocence or guilt

Here's What California is Banning Next

California's legislature just passed a bill to prevent restaurants from offering soda and other sugar-added drinks to children--supposedly designed to prevent childhood obesity.

U.S. News and World Report writes:

The bill was introduced in response to a rise in obesity, which, according to the legislation, increased 250 percent in the state from 1990 to 2016. Lawmakers are hoping the provisions in the bill will address obesity and obesity-related medical conditions, such as diabetes, which "have serious economic costs."

"Many families lack adequate time to obtain and prepare healthy food, making dining out an appealing and often necessary option. As a result, more than one-half of food expenditures in the United States are spent outside the home," the bill states. "Nationwide, American children eat 25 percent of their calories at fast food and other restaurants. Children consume almost twice as many calories when they eat a meal at a restaurant as they do when they eat at home."

Senate Bill 1192 states that any restaurant offering a children's meal must offer water, sparkling water or flavored water with no added natural or artificial sweeteners, unflavored milk and a non-dairy alternative that is no more than 130 calories as the standard drink option.

The bill was overwhelmingly approved 32 to 7 in the California Senate in May and passed the Assembly 46 to 26.


The bill will go into law if signed by Governor Jerry Brown.

It's always struck me as just another way the legal system is slanted toward those with more wealth, as well.
