Suffrage; restore to Andre Nichols of Hinds County.
HB 4006 is a one-time bill restoring voting rights to Andre Nichols, a specific individual from Hinds County, Mississippi. It directly affects Nichols by reinstating his right to vote after he was disqualified due to past felony convictions (receiving stolen property, possession of controlled substance, and firearm possession as a felon), including a 2022 probation sentence for firearm possession. The bill cites his release from probation in June 2022 and states he has since "conducted himself as a law-abiding and honorable citizen." This is a procedural act targeting one person's voting eligibility, not a broader policy change, and it died in committee in April 2025.
