We’re proud of Minnesota Freedom Fund’s work to reduce the harms of cash bail and immigration detention, but paying bail and bonds is not enough to eradicate these harms. We need to create lasting, transformative change — and we need your help to do it.

We have the power to end wealth-based jailing.

It will take all of us to achieve pre-trial fairness and immigration justice in Minnesota. Here's how you can take action...

Pledge to Support Pre-Trial Fairness

MFF Action believes that no one should be jailed simply because they don’t have enough money in their bank account. That’s why we’re building a grassroots movement for pre-trial fairness in Minnesota. And we need every one of our supporters to join us.

Ask Your Lawmaker to Support the Hardel Sherrell Act

The Hardel Sherrell Act was passed in 2021 to protect the lives of people incarcerated in Minnesota jails and make sure they receive the care they deserve. But since the law was passed, the number of jail deaths in Minnesota has continued to climb. Demand that your lawmakers set a hearing for the Hardel Sherrell Act and make sure that the legislation works as intended and provides true care and protection for people in local jails.

Ask Your Lawmaker to Support Pre-Trial Data Transparency

SF 3222, a bill for Pre-Trial Data Transparency, would require counties to annually report pre-trial data to the Sentencing Guidelines Commission and provide legislative and public transparency into the pre-trial process, so that the Commission can use that data to recommend improvements to statewide bail practices. Ask your lawmakers to support this bill!

Letters to the editor of your local paper provide a great platform for addressing your community, and writing one can be easy if you use our simple 5-part template.
