Advocates Push For Automated Criminal-Record Expungement in Mississippi

Clean Slate laws are helping remove barriers to jobs and housing for formerly incarcerated individuals, with new research showing significant benefits to public safety and economic stability.

Virginia lawmakers from both parties come together in a rare show of unity to pass a Clean Slate law, offering a second chance to thousands by sealing eligible criminal records and fostering bipartisan criminal justice reform.

Springfield City Council and advocates rallied to support Clean Slate bills that would automate the sealing of eligible criminal records, aiming to improve access to jobs, housing, and stability.
