On February 8, newly-elected Governor Jeff Landry issued a proclamation for a highly-anticipated special session on crime that included twenty-five policy priorities. The 38 bills that resulted from the call could have disastrous fiscal, safety, and longterm economic effects on the Pelican State without improving public safety.

Hosted by local business owner Steve Conway of Pyramid Construction Services, the press conference included comments by representatives of the nation’s largest bipartisan criminal justice and public safety advocacy organization, Justice Action Network; Americans for Prosperity-Pennsylvania; Associated Builders & Contractors Keystone Chapter; and Community Legal Services; along with those who have been impacted by Pennsylvania’s record sealing policies.
