Ripon Advance: Bipartisan Reschenthaler bill offers non-violent criminals a second chance to start over
…
“During my time in the State Senate, I helped Pennsylvania pass its own Clean Slate law to end the revolving door between jail and the streets, and I am proud to continue that effort at the federal level,” said Rep. Reschenthaler. “I look forward to working with Representative Blunt Rochester to get this legislation over the finish line and provide individuals who have already paid their debts to society with a fresh start.”
The Center for American Progress, the Faith and Freedom Coalition, JPMorgan Chase & Co., Americans for Tax Reform, the Brennan Center for Justice, the Justice Action Network, and the Responsible Business Initiative are among several entities that have endorsed the proposed bill.
