Kudos to Mr. Ryan Costello on this piece on the Clean Slate Act. This legislation which has bipartisan bipartisan support proposes to remove barriers that prevent ex-offenders from employment, housing etc. https://t.co/WZIDAzhEyB @FuturesRestored

Studies show that inmates who participate in education programs are less likely to return in prison in 3 years. Encouraging education in our systems will reduce recidivism. Congrats to these two graduates!

The effects of a criminal record weigh heavy even after mistakes have been paid for. Offering second chances will provide opportunities for those to flourish in society. #CriminalJusticeReform #CleanSlateAct

Passing the #CleanSlateAct will benefit 2.3 million New Yorkers, removing barriers to enable people to move forward from past mistakes. Great article! @GothamGazette

@GrantLawPLLC shares why it is so important to offer people second chances. If you had made a mistake, wouldn't you want someone to give you an opportunity?

Women's incarceration rates have increased 475% in the last 30 years. We are going backwards. #ReduceRecidivism #CriminalJusticeReform

91% of Americans say that the criminal justice system has issues that need fixing. Because of that statistic, shouldn't this be something on the top of politicians' agendas?

Reducing recidivism can not only allow this money to be invested elsewhere, but can lower the states spending. #CriminalJusticeReform

[FuturesRestored @FuturesRestored]

Time to invest in programs that have been proven to work.

Even though Second Chance Month has passed, we should be working every day to support those returning to society. @thehill

Reducing prison population by implementing rehabilitation methods will heavily reduce state spending. #CriminalJusticeReform

Opportunities for success start with employment. The #CleanSlateAct will offer second chances to those who need it most.

Thank you, @NYCSpeakerAdams and the @NYCCouncil, for the support! Time to grant seconds chances. Clean Slate can't wait!

[(ARCHIVED) Adrienne Adams @NYCSpeakerAdams]

The @nyccouncil approved a resolution urging the State Legislature to pass the Clean Slate Act. We stood with advocates and our state partners in support of sealing past conviction records that block 2.3M New Yorkers from accessing housing, jobs, and educational opportunities.

[FuturesRestored @FuturesRestored]

Clean Slate can't wait!

Time to invest in our neighbors and offer second chances to those who have done their time. #CriminalJusticeReform

[FuturesRestored @FuturesRestored]

Keeping rehabilitation efforts as a top priority in criminal justice reform will greatly reduce our recidivism rates. #CriminalJusticeReform

[FuturesRestored @FuturesRestored]

Thank you, @ShaunAbreu, for your support! Let's get it done.

[Shaun Abreu @ShaunAbreu]

The Clean Slate Act will seal records, helping formerly incarcerated folks get access to jobs & housing.

Unions, businesses, & advocates are all on board because it will reduce recidivism and the cycle of perpetual punishment. It's time our legislators in Albany get it done.
