President Joe Biden is commuting the sentences of nearly 1,500 people and pardoning 39 more convicted of nonviolent crimes, the White House announced on Thursday, describing it as “the largest single-day grant of clemency in modern history.”
The people whose sentences will be commuted were placed on home confinement during the coronavirus pandemic and have “successfully reintegrated” with their families and communities, the White House said in a statement.
