lca Adnan Khan James Zeigler That’s why we’ve been campaigning since 2003 to #BanTheBox & remove those barriers.
Now 35 states have Fair Chance Hiring policies.
In 2018 we passed #AB1008 removing that question from private employer applications in California.
More work to be done!

From The The Progress-Index: @delegateaird's years-long push to get #banthebox legislation passed in Virginia is finally successful now that Virginia Democrats control the legislature.

Hi, Senator Team Bettencourt! I understood you had some baseless concerns about County Attorney Christian D. Menefee introducing the “ #BanTheBox ” policy. I just wanted to remind you of the words your fearless leader echoed on this issue. Seems he agrees with us 🤷🏿♂️.

California’s #BanTheBox law means employers can’t make hiring decisions based on an individual’s criminal history. Once someone is on the job, however, different rules apply. It’s time to end this. It’s time to #SunsetConvictions with #SB731 !
An updated 'Beyond the Box' report from Malcolm Wiener Center for Social Policy goes further than the original by U.S. Department of Education: 'Higher education institutions should refrain from collecting and using criminal justice information in the admissions process.' #banthebox #highered pw.hks.harvard.edu/post/beyond-th…
More Americans have an arrest record than have a college degree.
Can we finally #banthebox ?
This is the job I've been trying to create in Northern Ireland even before my release. Perfect for someone who has been to prison. Congratulations Turnaround Project for #banthebox via Unlock 'Engagement and Participation Manager' - communityni.org/job/engagement…
A year ago I was confirmed by the Oregon Senate to serve as an Alcohol and Drug Policy Commissioner. It was in person so I got to go to the capitol and snap this pic, seems bizarrely distant now. Today I testify before the Senate via video call for #banthebox in higher ed.

Elon Musk Why do you post such garbage?
Lots of places require listing criminal history by law. Also, plenty of places where initiatives to ban the box #BanTheBox have taken hold. So, it’s a patchwork.
No one is being “forced” to hire criminals, not even SHEETZ

Woke up to see Political Research Quarterly published a paper by Anna Gunderson & me. It explains US cities’ adoptions of #BantheBox for jobs 2004-2019. #POD #polipuni journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…
