PBS News Weekend

Season 4, Episode 2 of 99

On Sunday, NewsHour Weekend examines the struggle of job applicants with criminal backgrounds. These job seekers, including those with nonviolent convictions, are often unable to find work -- even if it has been years since they served time for past criminal infractions. And given the current climate of extreme job competition, these applicants are increasingly being driven into poverty. NewsHour's Stephen Fee reports in this updated segment.
