AN ACT ALLOWING INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS TO VOTE.

This bill would amend state law to allow individuals currently incarcerated in state correctional facilities to register and vote while serving their sentences. It directly affects people in prison who are otherwise ineligible to vote under current law. The key provision removes the restriction that bars incarcerated individuals from voting, enabling them to participate in elections without needing to be released first. The change would apply to all state elections, including federal and local races, for those who meet standard voter registration requirements. The bill's stated purpose is to restore voting rights to incarcerated residents during their incarceration.
