Speaking of Ending Cash Bail

 In the second episode of "Speaking of Justice," Adam Salzman is joined by Illinois State Representative Will Guzzardi (39th District). Together, they discuss Rep. Guzzardi’s career in Illinois politics, including his recent support of the SAFE-T Act, a focal point of the 2022 elections and Criminal Justice Reform efforts. Rep. Guzzardi discusses how the Act was built, the implications of its abolition of cash bail, and what to expect when it goes into effect on January 1, 2023. 

*Episode was recorded on November 2, before the 2022 midterm elections
