The Sixth Amendment guarantees that juries—not judges—determine the facts necessary to impose criminal punishment. In Mizrahi v. United States, we urge #SCOTUS to restore the jury’s historic role in criminal forfeiture cases.

We applaud the commitment to #SecondChanceMonth and hope this will help lead to removing the barriers that keep millions from rebuilding their lives.

We also urge further action to expand opportunity, reduce recidivism, and make second chances a reality.

We celebrated Second Chance Month with our event "Unlocking America's Workforce: How Clean Slate Legislation Strengthens The Economy"

Policy experts spoke to congressional staff on how lawmakers can take the lead on economic growth by supporting second chance legislation

[Due Process Institute @iDueProcess]

The Senate should reject a “clean” reauthorization of Section 702. Forcing it through without real reform ignores years of bipartisan concern and leaves warrantless searches of Americans’ data untouched. Congress must protect both security *and* civil liberties.

"Section 702 is so vast that it incidentally collects Americans’ information... Some of these AI systems, they can essentially track where you’re coming, where you’re going, where you work, political affiliations." - Vice President @pye

👏Hearing directly from people impacted by record sealing like Shante Smith, Lakeisha Green, and Richard Flanagan. Their stories and experience are reminders of how important it is to remove barriers and promote opportunity

[Due Process Institute @iDueProcess]

Great to kick off @CleanSlate_Init's Pass the Mic for Second Chance Month with a message from @SenLBR, a champion of Clean Slate legislation, about the importance of passing second chance bills across the country and opening up opportunities for returning citizens

[Due Process Institute @iDueProcess]

Inspiring to hear examples of states like Connecticut where 150,000 people already benefitted from the state's new Clean Slate legislation and is aiming to be a leader in notification systems

[Due Process Institute @iDueProcess]

A warrant requirement isn’t a compromise, it’s a constitutional baseline. If the government wants to read Americans’ communications, it should get a warrant.

Congress shouldn’t settle for half-measures when Fourth Amendment rights are at stake.

Last week, leaders in Congress came together — across party lines — to introduce resolutions supporting the recognition of April 2026 as #SecondChanceMonth.

Only the highest of standards for the new FISA bill!

(still no warrant, still no court approval, still no real reforms to stop ongoing abuse)

[Due Process Institute @iDueProcess]

Join us at @CleanSlate_Init's virtual webinar "Pass the Mic for Second Chance Month" on April 27th where we will cover progress at the state + federal level and hear the experiences of people directly impacted by record sealing.

We've received a summary of the FISA bill. Journalists and citizens, watch as the deep state performs its sleight of hand!

Join us for our panel discussion "Unlocking America's Workforce: How Clean Slate Legislation Strengthens the Economy"

Policy experts will discuss on how bills like the Clean Slate Act and the Fresh Start Act create opportunity and promote economic growth.

[Rand Paul @RandPaul]

If the government wants to read your emails, it should have to convince a judge first. That's what the Fourth Amendment requires. That's what my Fourth Amendment Restoration and Protection Act restores. No warrant, no search.
