Establishes the Ease Access to Suffrage Program to help restore voting rights in Mississippi.

The Ease Access to Suffrage (EASE) Act establishes a program within the Office of the Secretary of State to facilitate the restoration of voting rights in Mississippi. The program aims to publish criteria for suffrage restoration, create a public portal for applications, and raise awareness about the process. It requires coordination with certain legislative leaders to determine criteria and ensure the right to vote is restored for the next election. The Secretary of State must promulgate clear rules and regulations to administer the program and ensure voting rights are fully restored.
