They control the timeline—and if they don’t act, the bills could stall. These bills would: Automate the CORI-sealing system to seal eligible records after the required waiting periods—no more red tape. Seal cases that end in dismissals or not-guilty findings. Improve access to jobs, housing, and education. Align Massachusetts with 12 other states that have passed similar reforms Let the Chair of the Senate Ways & Means Committee it's time to bring these bills to a vote! https://actionnetwork.org/letters/time-to-pass-the-clean-slate-bills
