Yesterday the
#FairChanceAct passed the Senate with Bipartisan support & is heading to the Presidents desk! This will help the formerly incarcerated find employment options more easily. When our leaders work together we can achieve great things like this! Here are my thoughts: pic.twitter.com/SntSXkXJgw -
So many formerly incarcerated people face steep barriers to employment long after they’ve paid their debt to society. With our
#FairChanceAct, they finally have access to a meaningful second chance. Thanks to all who worked hard for this, including the late Rep. Cummings. https://twitter.com/civilrightsorg/status/1206998059533709315 …

Up to 75% of formerly incarcerated individuals remain unemployed a year after release, putting them at higher risk of reoffending. The
#FairChanceAct will decrease that number and give them a true#SecondChance. Hope to see it signed into law later today!https://bit.ly/34Hlpn9 -
