Arlington, VA – Protecting Americans Action Fund Chairman and Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin released the following statement regarding an executive order that ends cashless bail.
“George Soros’ liberal prosecutors have weaponized cashless bail, turning our justice system into a dangerous catch-and-release program. We commend President Trump for his executive order ending this failed experiment. By stopping rogue Soros-backed prosecutors in New York City, Chicago, San Francisco, and beyond from undermining justice, this action restores law and order and ensures our laws are enforced. Protecting Americans Action Fund proudly supports prosecutors who enforce the law, stand with victims, and keep dangerous criminals off our streets.”

Fox News confirmed earlier Monday that Trump was ordering the end of cash bail policies nationwide by threatening to revoke federal funding for jurisdictions across the country. ‘We are at a point where Washington is booming again,’ Trump told reporters in the Oval Office before signing the orders. ‘People are pouring in like we haven’t seen for years.’” (Fox News, 08/25/25)
