According to UPI<\/a>, a proposal is underway to seal all criminal records for those in California.<\/p>\n

A proposal making its way through the California Assembly would automatically seal low-level criminal records — part of a growing effort by several states to give offenders a better chance at reform.<\/p>\n

The bill would affect millions of Californians whose prior rap sheets present significant social obstacles.\u00a0 AB 1076 would ensure the automatic secrecy of records for certain offenders who\u00a0 have completed their sentences. If passed, the law would take effect Jan. 1, 2021.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It’s is called… you guessed it – “Clean Slate.”\u00a0 It’s not really a clean slate, it just really means the public can’t see it.\u00a0 So if you ever wonder if that person you are hiring for odd jobs around the house ran a meth lab or was convicted of armed robbery, this should now put you at ease.\u00a0 Out of sight, out of mind.<\/p>\n

I believe in second chances along with the next person, it is not about that.\u00a0 This feels like you are not given an option and are working blind, so you can’t even brag about giving someone a second chance.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, it’s California, so what?\u00a0 \u00a0California likes to feel as if they set the precedence for the rest of the country.<\/p>\n

It is helpful to know if there is a deeper issue with Stolen Valor cases.\u00a0 If passed, this may no longer be an option for looking at the background for people in California that commit Stolen Valor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
