Allows individuals on probation and parole to vote
HB 2201 amends Missouri election laws to allow individuals on probation or parole to vote, provided they are not currently incarcerated. The bill removes the specific restriction that previously barred people convicted of felonies from registering to vote while serving their probation or parole sentences. This change directly affects residents of Missouri who are under community supervision after a felony conviction, enabling them to participate in elections once they meet the standard registration deadline. The legislation maintains existing rules that still prevent people who are physically confined in prison from voting.
