"New York's Clean Slate Act Offers Second Chances, Sealing Criminal Records for Thousands"

New York Governor Kathy Hochul has signed a new law that automatically seals old criminal records for individuals who have completed their sentences and remained out of trouble for a certain period of time. The legislation, known as the "clean slate" law, will seal most criminal records three years after serving time or parole for a misdemeanor and eight years for felony convictions, excluding sex crimes and most Class A felonies. Advocates argue that this law is necessary to provide millions of New Yorkers with criminal records access to secure jobs, housing, and education, as they often face significant barriers even after completing their sentences. The law will go into effect in one year and will not apply to individuals with pending felony charges in other states.

College seniors are graduating into a job market that is in flux, with some industries eager to hire while others struggle to find workers. The tech industry has been hit hard by interest rate hikes, while health care and leisure and hospitality have posted gains. Graduates in communications are finding it difficult to land jobs, with openings in the information industry posting only 1,000 new positions. Economists advise graduates to keep an open mind about where they start their careers, as industries that don't require a college degree are adding headcount, which could translate to getting promoted quickly.
