Mississippi HB1423 amends the state's voting laws to automatically restore voting rights for individuals whose disenfranchising crime convictions have been expunged, provided they have not been convicted of another disenfranchising crime and meet all other eligibility requirements. The bill specifies that upon presenting proof of expungement, county registrars or election commissioners must enter the individual's name into the Statewide Elections Management System, the state's voter roll, and the county's pollbooks.
