SB 2512 Mississippi Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Suffrage; restore suffrage to Vedo Kyles.

SB 2512 restores voting rights to Vedo Kyles of Yazoo County, Mississippi, who was disqualified after 1995 convictions for possession of stolen goods and attempted armed robbery. The bill explicitly states his sentences (completed by 2000) and confirms he has been law-abiding since release. It directly affects only Vedo Kyles, with no broader policy changes. The bill died in committee on April 3, 2025, and would have taken effect upon passage.
