The Illinois Supreme Court announced Tuesday it has decided to reverse a decision from a Chicago-area judge surrounding the controversial "SAFE-T Act," marking.
Speaking at an unrelated event in Chicago, the governor made his first public comments on the issue since a judge ruled that the Pretrial Fairness Act violates the Illinois Constitution.
Gov. Pritzker said he is “comfortable and confident” a state law ending cash bail that was set to take effect New Year’s Day is constitutional despite a court ruling to the contrary, but that supporters will “come back at it” if that ruling stands.
