The final push for Clean Slate and more ways to fight for progress (April 26)

As the 2022 session of the Colorado legislature winds down in its final weeks, there’s a lot of important legislation still making its way through the process. We need to stay vigilant all the way until adjournment on May 11 to make sure the bills we’ve been fighting for since January end up on Gov. Jared Polis’ desk.

Last week, the Clean Slate Act passed the Colorado Senate! Thanks to everyone who contacted your lawmakers, sent letters, and showed up to rally for this important legislation to fire up Colorado’s job market with thousands of workers ready to rejoin the workforce and contribute. The Clean Slate Act provides a system for automatic sealing of records for nonviolent offenders who have completed their sentence and stayed out of trouble.

Now the Clean Slate Act is in the Colorado House, and your representative needs to hear from you. Click here to get the information you need on the Clean Slate Act, and then take action by contacting your Colorado House member and urging them to vote YES on Senate Bill 099.

It’s a privilege to fight alongside you in support of our shared progressive values, and we’ll continue to send periodic updates like this one with a range of action items and events from PNC and our partners. Through the rest of this critical election year, we’ll be focusing on important breaking news and action alerts as they happen as part of our core mission to be the first line of rapid response for Colorado progressives.

Thanks for your continued support, and here are a few more ways to take action in the coming days:
