Did you know only 12 states have passed comprehensive Clean Slate laws since 2018? These laws automatically seal certain criminal records, giving people a real shot at a fresh start. But here's the kicker - implementing these laws isn't always smooth sailing. A recent R Street Institute explainer highlights three key strategies for improving Clean Slate legislation and implementation: 1. Start small, dream big. Pennsylvania nailed this approach, gradually expanding its Clean Slate laws over time. 2. Get those records digitized! Digitizing and centralizing criminal records might sound boring, but it's a game-changer for making these laws work. 3. Seal or expunge? There's a big difference, and it matters for policy. At Rasa, we're all about smart reform that works for everyone. Our Founder & CEO, Noella Sudbury, has been in the trenches, working on expungement and record clearance bills in over 20 states. We've seen firsthand how these changes can transform lives and communities. What do you think? Is it time for more states to embrace Clean Slate laws? Let's chat about building a justice system that believes in second chances.
