In a transformative win for civil rights in New York, #CleanSlateNY has been signed into law. Millions of New Yorkers who have been perpetually punished due to their conviction records now have a pathway to job, housing, and education.

We celebrate the signing of #CleanSlateNY. Roughly two million New Yorkers may be eligible to have their records sealed which allows for greater access to higher education, employment, & housing. Congrats to all those who made this happen, especially directly impacted leaders.

#GivingTuesday! OAD provides appellate representation and post-conviction relief to New Yorkers experiencing poverty. Your donations support criminal justice reform, access to justice, and second chances. Make a tax-deductible gift before midnight: secure.oadnyc.org/np/clients/oad…

We join advocates across NY urging Governor Kathy Hochul to sign S939/A152 and #RestoreAppellateReview. This bill will end the pernicious practice of DAs requiring a "Waiver of Appeal" on any felony matter to block oversight of police misconduct or constitutional violations.

We applaud New York City Council for passing the #HowManyStopsAct Intros 586 & 538. 👏🏽 These bills will bring critical and urgent transparency to the NYPD’s daily activities in Black, Brown, and low-income communities. Tell Mayor Eric Adams to sign these bills into law! abc7ny.com/nyc-council-ny…
