MACG the Seed for Statewide Win on Debt Relief for Former Prisoners
In our end of the year MACG news round-up we sent last week, we forgot to mention one important win:
Gov. Kate Brown signed SB 360 into law in July, which allows former prisoners to pay some court-related fees back through performing community service.
Sen. Lew Frederick agreed to introduce the bill after hearing stories PHOENIX Rising Transition members told about post-prison financial burdens at the 2015 MACG listening campaign.
