Suffrage; restore to Shirley Wilson of Smith County.
This bill restores Shirley Wilson's right to vote in Smith County, Mississippi, after she lost suffrage rights due to a 1995 grand larceny conviction. It formally declares her disqualification ended upon completion of her 48-month probation in 1998, noting she has since been a law-abiding citizen. The bill specifically targets her individual case and does not create new voting policies. It died in committee on April 3, 2025.
