Suffrage; restore to Cassidy Kimberly Alexander of Lamar County.
This bill restores the right to vote to Cassidy Alexander of Lamar County, Mississippi, who had previously lost her suffrage due to criminal convictions for forgery and vehicle theft. The legislation formally recognizes that she has served her sentences and has since lived as a law-abiding citizen, removing the legal barrier that prevented her from voting. By passing this act, the Mississippi Legislature officially reinstates her eligibility to participate in elections without requiring any additional steps or conditions.
