South Carolina H3006 advocates for ending felony disenfranchisement for those no longer incarcerated.
South Carolina H3006 is a resolution expressing the belief that a felony conviction should not disqualify a person from being registered or voting if they are no longer incarcerated. The bill highlights the historical context of felony disenfranchisement laws, which disproportionately affect Black Americans, and notes that South Carolina continues to disenfranchise felons even after their release from prison. The resolution aims to address the ongoing impact of these laws, which are rooted in historical racism and are more restrictive in the U.S. compared to other democratic countries.
