This legislation will go a long way to reduce recidivism and ensure that individuals who have served their time can re-enter society successfully. I would like to acknowledge the hard work of Senator Dick Durbin and Congresswoman Robin Kelly that made this bipartisan bill a success. I am proud that the Illinois delegation has taken the lead in this important fight to reform our criminal justice system." ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-06-27T23:11:43Z |
