Mississippi HB433 restores voting rights to individuals convicted of non-disqualifying crimes after completing their sentences.

Mississippi HB433 amends the state's voting laws to restore full suffrage to individuals disqualified by criminal convictions, provided they have completed their sentences. The bill defines "sentence" as the term of incarceration, probation, and parole for a disqualifying conviction. It mandates that the Secretary of State and the Mississippi Department of Corrections collaborate to ensure that officials responsible for voter registration have up-to-date means to verify sentence completion.
