## Resource

Missouri just rolled out a major public safety overhaul called “Clean Slate,” automatically clearing nonviolent misdemeanor and felony records after one and three years respectively—no new offenses required. But violent crimes and child-related offenses stay off-limits, with caps of three misdemeanors and two felonies eligible. The Missouri Highway Patrol runs the program. Beyond record expungement, the bill introduces “masked intimidation” as a new crime, bans drone flights over critical infrastructure, mandates camp staff background checks, toughens drunk driving penalties with mandatory prison time for injuries or deaths, and legally enforces age verification for adult websites—all aimed at protecting families and boosting public safety.
