The stigma of a felony record puts a large number of people at an unfair disadvantage in training and employment opportunities. It contributes to poverty, crime, and civil unrest/disobedience. It is unfair to allow American citizens to be treated as if they are inhuman and not worthy of the American Dream. Victimless crimes and non violent felony offenders are suffering bias and discrimination, which excludes them unfairly from common society. They deserve as much aid as any illegal immigrant, Egyptian or Syrian, so please address this atrocity.
