February 10, 2020
Assemblywoman Marjorie Byrnes (R,C-Caledonia) was proud to attend the repeal bail reform press conference that took place today in Rochester. Byrnes is continuing her push to repeal the states new bail reform law that took effect January 1, 2020.
Passed inside of the $175 billion state budget, this bail reform law is full of holes and has been a nightmare for our law enforcement professionals to deal with, Byrnes said. We must repeal this law now and reinstate judicial discretion in pretrial criminal proceedings. As a former judge and prosecutor, I will always be committed to the rule of law and protecting our communities above all else.
