WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump plans to sign an executive order Monday aimed at eliminating cashless bail for arrested suspects in Washington, D.C., a senior White House official said.

President Donald Trump moved on two issues important to his conservative base Monday, signing executive orders aimed at ending cashless bail across the country and pushing courts to reconsider the legality of burning the American flag.

The president has long railed against cashless bail, but studies have not backed up his claims that changes in bail laws lead to an increase in crime.
