STATEMENT: We - and millions of New Yorkers across the state - are dismayed that Clean Slate was left out of this year’s budget despite tremendous statewide support. The ball is now in the Legislature’s court. Pass Clean Slate immediately.
Not passing #CleanSlate in the budget means 2.3M NYers continue to wait to join our economy. The Clean Slate Act has massive support from all corners of NY. @CarlHeastie and @AndreaSCousins must pass it and @GovKathyHochul must make good on her word to get it done this session.

These days in politics, consensus is hard to find. On criminal justice issues, it’s almost unheard of.
But for the past two years, the #CleanSlate coalition has grown to include voices from every sector, every perspective, every corner of NYS.
It’s unprecedented. 🧵
"Bail reform saved lives. I sat in jail for 11 months on a bail I couldn't afford. But the hardest blow of all was to take a plea deal for something I hadn't done just to end that suffering," @MarvinMayfield7@CCA_NY
Approximately 1 in 3 American adults has a criminal record, limiting their access to edu., jobs, & housing. #SecondChanceMonth exists to raise awareness about these barriers & unlock brighter futures for people with a criminal record.
