Re: “City Councils, EEOC Grapple with Employment Protections for Ex-Convicts”.

Part of the stated purpose of D.C.’s Bill 19-889 is “to create limited liability for employers who hire or retain returning citizens if the employer has taken certain steps to make a good-faith determination that hiring or retaining a returning citizen is favorable” and to “create a certificate of good standing, issued by the Department of Corrections, for qualifying returning citizens.

First we had “undocumented workers” and now we have “returning citizens”. Newspeak is alive and well in Leftist circles.
