Biden commutes 1,500 jail sentences, grants pardons for 39 others: 'Largest single-day grant of clemency'
President Biden has commuted the sentences of nearly 1,500 individuals and granted 39 pardons, marking the largest single-day clemency act in modern U.S. history. The commutations primarily benefit inmates on home confinement during the COVID-19 pandemic who have reintegrated successfully.

This action highlights Biden's commitment to criminal justice reform, as he has issued more commutations than recent predecessors at the same point in their terms. The pardons were granted to those convicted of non-violent crimes amid ongoing scrutiny regarding the pardoning of his son, Hunter.
