It's a chance to start again. Lawmakers in Harrisburg say a new bi-partisan bill would empower people with low-level non-violent felony charges on their record, making it easier to reenter society.

"No one should be judged by their worst day," said State Representative Jordan Harris, a Democrat who serves Philadelphia.

Last month, Republican State Representative Sheryl Delozier joined Harris in introducing Pennsylvania State House Bill 689.

"Criminal records have stopped people from getting jobs, it stops them from going to school, it stops them from living in certain places," Harris said.

Do what they have done in California, legalize most crimes, have cash free bail and drop charges whenever possible.

This should extend to all crimes and should be nationwide.
