Dear Friend,
I’m inviting you to join me, Attorney General Dana Nessel, Rep. Christine Morse, and Rep. Julie Rogers for a virtual town hall next Tuesday evening on Michigan’s new Clean Slate expungement law, which I was proud to vote in support of last fall — because without it, too many Michigan citizens were held back from employment, housing, and other opportunities by nonviolent mistakes they made long ago.
I hope you can join us for this important discussion and learn more about your rights! We will be joined by expert panelists from the Department of the Attorney General, Michigan Works!, and Kalamazoo Defender. Town hall attendees will also hear legal experts explain how these new laws expand eligibility to petition for an expungement and create a new process that will automatically seal certain, nonviolent conviction records if a person has remained conviction-free for a period of time.
WHAT: Virtual Town Hall on Expanded Eligibility for Expungement
WHEN: Tuesday, July 27 from 6:00-7:00 PM
WHERE: Virtual/Zoom – Register at this link by 7/26
Please click here to RSVP to the Facebook event and invite friends who may be interested or forward this email to anyone you know who might be able to benefit from the exciting, new Clean Slate program.
I look forward to seeing you next week!
Sean McCann
State Senator
20th District
