 Most job applications have a box they're supposed to fill out. Have you ever been convicted of a crime? Too often what happens is with that box, that person never even gets a chance to make his or her case. As of July 1st, we will ban that box in public hiring, non-civil service positions. We want our system of prisons to actually be rehabilitation centers. We want people to come out of prison and be able to come back into being productive members of our economy, our society. Ban the box is a good start. I'm starting with the executive branch in Harrisburg. That's what I can control directly in the hopes that we can convince others up in Harrisburg to take the bigger step and make this a reality for everybody in Pennsylvania.
