- ACLU-KS believes our cash bail system is one of the most unfair aspects of our criminal legal system, in which there are two tiers for the exact same crime: those who can pay for their freedom, and those who can’t. People who can’t afford to pay bail remain in jail until their trial, and this has rippling effects on our communities. We’re organizing to change this system so that freedom doesn’t depend on how much money you have.
