Michigan residents with past criminal convictions could soon have more ways to clear their records or automatically get their records expunged after a period of time for certain offenses.

“Clean Slate” legislation designed to simplify and expand expungement options for people who have gone several years without committing another offense passed the Michigan Senate with wide bipartisan support Wednesday. The main bills in the package passed the House last November and will be returned to the House for final approval of Senate changes – then goes to Gov. Gretchen Whitmer for consideration.

…. It goes back to the house then to Governor Whitmer to think about

Gay-Dagnogo on Good Moral Character Reform Package

LANSING, Mich., Sept. 10, 2020 —Today, the House passed the bipartisan ‘Good Moral Character’ reform package, which would collectively remove barriers for individuals with past criminal convictions when seeking professional certifications. State Rep. Sherry Gay-Dagnogo (D-Detroit), sponsor of House Bill 4492 in the package to update the Michigan Occupational Code, released the following statement in response:

“I am pleased that my colleagues in the House were willing to give thousands of Michiganders a second chance at life. Making mistakes is a part of the human experience, we all do it. And we all deserve a chance to positively move forward and build a successful future. This bill package creates an opportunity for them to do that. As we continue to navigate through this pandemic and imagine what things will be like on the other side, we must do everything we can to ensure those who are willing and able to serve their communities don’t have unreasonable barriers in their way.”September 10, 2020
