Suffrage; restore to Agnes Standifer of Lee County.
This bill restores the right to vote to Agnes Standifer of Lee County, Mississippi, who had previously lost her voting privileges due to a 2000 grand larceny conviction. The legislation acknowledges that Standifer completed her sentence and has since lived as a law-abiding citizen, thereby removing the legal barrier that disqualified her from the ballot. Once enacted, this change allows her to immediately participate in elections as a registered voter.
