President Obama on Monday announced a new executive order that prevents federal agencies from making job-applicants reveal they have a criminal record as part of his overall criminal justice reform effort.

The so-called “drop the box” initiative would allow prospective employees not to check a box on some federal applications that acknowledges a criminal record.

If it is such a good idea then I am sure Obama would allow the WH secret service that protect him and his daughters to use the same process.

Here’s another one you might want to post... Obama’s DHS is attempting to make illegals legal by going around the law...

Our dictator wannabee is running out of time to destroy the country...

It was federal employees that gave us the wonderful cultural icon “going postal”. Do we really need more of that?

This is insane .. where I worked, you had to be drug screened; given a physical, and be fingerprinted.

The reason .. we were caring for people with Alzheimer’s .. and they are very vulnerable to people who try to take advantage of them.

I realize that position was not a FED job .. but to say that FED workers don’t have to have a clean record is just giving away the store .. which is exactly what I presume is the goal. Make sure whitey gets taken to the cleaners.

When are people going to stand up and make the DemocRATS responsible for foisting Obama upon us ..???????????????

I know that’s asking a lot .. but I didn’t vote for this lawless person .. America has lost her backbone.

Isn’t this like yelling FIRE in a crowded theater? He means to do damage and knows they convicts can’t be fired.

How do you feel about having a convict convicted of who knows what now looking at your tax records or whatever?

Make you feel secure in your person?

Our boys aren’t fighting for freedom.

It will last until reports of Ex-Cons working in government are caught looting and pillaging the countries coffers.
