11.17.24 - Sen. Zellnor Myrie and Kathy Wylde OpEd: Clean Slate benefits economy, public safety

For many, the rising costs of housing, childcare and other basic necessities put stability out of reach. Financial strain, in turn, can contribute to increased criminal activity and mental health issues that make everyone feel less safe.
