The taint of a criminal record can create barriers to housing, jobs & more. This week, we launched a project to expunge non-violent, low-level convictions for 37,000+ eligible SF residents. Thanks to our staff & interns for helping San Franciscans to get back on track.

These days more and more situations require a background check. The point of the justice system should be that "you do the time" (and other consequences) and then are treated the same as everybody else. It harms everyone if people coming out of prison aren't able to get a job.

I kinda disagree with your premise. I lived my whole career (30 years) and only had a background check twice. Plus half of the population these days is self-employed. Only people rehabilitated should get their record cleared - a pardon - not "everyone".
