"Under our Constitution, defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty. But far too many are detained pending trial when they haven't been convicted of any crime & pose no threat to society. We can't end mass incarceration unless we end the overuse of pretrial detention."
"Today I'm introducing the Smarter Pretrial Detention for Drug Charges Act with @SenMikeLee &
@ChrisCoons to help reduce federal pretrial detention, which is at record high levels. We will fight to get this targeted, bipartisan bill enacted into law."
