Yesterday Pennsylvania Rep Jordan Harris shared this moving video starring our friend Marilyn, who has benefited from Clean Slate automated sealing.

Harris said, “This is why Clean Slate is so important. Minor mistakes made in the past shouldn’t prohibit people from betting themselves through education, housing, or employment. For too long, our criminal justice system has targeted retribution rather than rehabilitation on people – specifically poor, black, and brown people.

I’m thankful to have allies like Rep. Sheryl Delozier and Governor Tom Wolf who understand this and were instrumental in getting Clean Slate passed in Pennsylvania. We expect over 30 million criminal records to be sealed by this time next year, and I’m so excited to hear more stories like Marilyn’s of people getting their much deserved second chance.”

Thank you for supporting Clean Slate, Rep Harris! Watch the video here.
