You were not convicted of a life sentence, so why do you have to suffer for the rest of your life? Criminal background checks hinder an ex inmates progress in life by automatically discriminating him or her from even the most basic employment and housing,thus forcing the ex inmate back into a life of crime just to sustain some form of life style. Im concerned that the land of the free is taking freedom secretly through bogus criminal convictions. Forcing most into recidivism only because their trying to survive. Ban Criminal background checks. On all employment.
