Contributing sentiments towards policy:

42% : "The Illinois Constitution of 1970 does not mandate that monetary bail is the only means to ensure criminal defendants appear for trials or the only means to protect the public," the majority stated in their opinion.
26% : Proponents such as Gov. JB Pritzker say this system will "ensure pre-trial detainment is determined by the danger an individual poses to the community instead of by their ability to pay their way out of jail."Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul had argued a ruling against the law would have opened the doors to decades of criminal justice reform led by the state legislature.
