Bill overview
This bill, sponsored by Senator Liz Miranda, aims to restore voting rights to individuals who have been incarcerated in Massachusetts. It declares an emergency to ensure the immediate implementation of this restoration process. The legislation seeks to align Massachusetts’ voting laws with those of other states that automatically restore voting rights to formerly incarcerated citizens. This would allow individuals who have completed their sentences to once again participate in the democratic process.
