Bill Summary
An Act To Restore The Right Of Suffrage To Sandra L. Warner Of Hinds County, Mississippi.
AI Summary
This bill aims to restore the voting rights (suffrage) to Sandra L. Warner of Hinds County, Mississippi, who was previously disqualified from voting due to a 2013 conviction for possession of stolen property. Warner was sentenced to five years in the Mississippi Department of Corrections, was released in November 2014, and was discharged from probation in September 2016. The bill specifically notes that since her conviction, Warner has conducted herself as a law-abiding citizen. The legislation would fully reinstate her right to vote, effectively removing any legal restrictions on her electoral participation that resulted from her prior criminal conviction. The bill would take effect immediately upon its passage, which is typical for individual legislative acts that restore civil rights to a specific person.
