The letter, organized by Alliance for Safety and Justice, outlines steps that the Administration can take to guarantee that people with past records can earn jobs created by the legislation as a way to maximize its economic and public safety impacts. Over two dozen organizations signed the letter: they include criminal justice organizations, crime victim groups like the National Alliance of Trauma Recovery Centers, and violence prevention programs such as Cure Violence, as well as civil rights organizations, including the National Urban League.
