    Shaun King Retweeted ACLU of Virginia

    This sounds so basic, but it is perhaps one of the most important, impactful, criminal justice reforms in the nation so far this year. One one fell swoop, 627,000 people in Virginia can get their driving privileges back. Every state needs to duplicate this.https://twitter.com/ACLUVA/status/1110591285826646017 …

    Shaun King added,

    ACLU of VirginiaVerified account @ACLUVA
    This is huge: @GovernorVA amends the budget to eliminate driver's license suspension for unpaid court debts and reinstate driving privileges for the 627,000+ Virginians who are impacted by this unfair, unjust law. @LegalAidJustice played a key role in making this happen. pic.twitter.com/UydFp6iD7h

        This makes me so happy. I’m sick and tired of seeing poor people being punished for being poor. This can hopefully create a domino effect.

        The legislature still has to approve, and they should be encouraged to do so

        I'll put on the like button, but I am not a skilled budget administrator so I don't know exactly how that would play out if the agencies were counting on that money during the fiscal year.....

        How does it play out for agencies if the lack of a driver's license makes it *harder* for people to pay those debts?

        Every1 wanted 2give our governor such a hard time. But as a person of color, &w/VA having a vast majority of inmates POC, this NEVER would have happened had he been a racist. &it wasnt damage control- this legislation takes time. Just like how VA got most ex-cons the right 2vote

        Virginia in the news for something other than white supremacy rallies or awful racist past of state officials? I guess thats pleasant.
