Bill > HR28

This Resolution proposes an amendment to the Georgia Constitution to remove a specific restriction on voting rights. Currently, individuals convicted of a felony involving "moral turpitude" (meaning a serious crime considered inherently wrong or base) are barred from registering and voting until they have completed their sentence. This Resolution seeks to eliminate that exception, meaning that once a person has completed their sentence for any felony, they would regain their right to vote, regardless of the nature of the felony. The Resolution also outlines the process for submitting this proposed amendment to the voters for ratification or rejection, including the wording that will appear on the ballot.
