Suffrage; restore to Hope Jones-Clark.
SB 3276 would have restored voting rights to Hope Jones-Clark of Marshall County, Mississippi, who lost her right to vote after a 2011 forgery conviction in Tennessee. The bill specifically states her disqualification stemmed from that conviction, noting she has since been a law-abiding citizen. It would have taken effect July 1, 2025, but the bill died in committee on April 3, 2025, meaning it did not become law. This is a procedural bill focused solely on one individual's voting rights restoration.
