Suffrage; restore to Chester Allen Butler of Tippah County.

This bill restores the right to vote to Chester Allen Butler of Tippah County, Mississippi, who had been disqualified due to a 1996 arson conviction. The legislation states that Butler completed his five-year probation sentence in 2001 and has since lived as a law-abiding citizen. By passing this act, the state legislature removes the voting ban associated with his past criminal record.
