People will no longer be defined by their records and will have the opportunity to contribute to their community, have a fair opportunity to work, get an education, and achieve their full potential.

Our Vision

The Clean Slate Initiative passes and implements laws that automatically clear eligible records for people who have completed their sentence and remained crime-free, and expands who is eligible for clearance.

Introducing Clean Slate

Clean Slate is a bipartisan policy model that uses technology to automate arrest and conviction record clearance if a person stays crime-free for a period of time. It's a proven and successful model to implement commonsense policies that create transformational changes in people's lives.

Clean Slate is rooted in the American Dream - the belief that if you work hard, you should be able to get ahead and provide for your family. Everyone deserves a shot at redemption. People who have made mistakes, paid their debt to society, and now want to make a better life for themselves and those who depend on them deserve a chance to do so.
