Daryl Atkinson of @Forward_Justice notes that people with conviction histories are going to be put at the "end of the economic line" when the pandemic recovery starts. Recovery efforts cannot exclude the 70 million Americans with criminal records. #SecondChancesResponse

No person should be judged by their worst day. Criminal records continue to judge a person and prohibit their advancement. That's why Pennsylvania's Clean Slate law is so important to helping people move on from their past. #SecondChancesResponse

If you have a felony for a drug charge, and the federal government can now legally sell that drug, how is it fair that you have a scarlet letter for your conviction? We must ask how do we get people back into the system rather than keep them out. #SecondChancesResponse

.@RepHarris says some would be better served other ways, not necessarily inside prison walls. "There are lots of people who are behind bars who quite frankly don't need to be there...these facilities can be petri dishes for the virus to spread." #COVID19 #SecondChancesResponse
