Statement in Support of President Trump's Executive Order to End Cashless Bail

Washington, D.C. - Today, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik (NY-21), Chair of the House Republican Leadership, released the following statement: "Kathy Hochul and NY Democrats failed bail reform has been a catastrophic disaster leading to a crime crisis in New York making every family and community less safe. Again and again, Kathy Hochul has prioritized violent criminals over law abiding New Yorkers. Enough is enough. I strongly support President Trump’s Executive Order to end cashless bail. I will be working to lead the effort in Congress to codify this Executive Order with legislation. For too long, New Yorkers have suffered violent crimes and even lost their lives due to Kathy Hochul and single party Democrat rule’s dangerous anti-police, pro-criminal policies. New Yorkers want law and order and tough on crime policies to bring safety back to our great state." ###
