Are you facing barriers in having your voting rights restored after the passage of Amendment 4?

On January 8, 2019, Amendment 4, the “Voting Restoration Amendment,” goes into effect. Amendment 4 states: "This amendment restores the voting rights of Floridians with felony convictions after they complete all terms of their sentence including parole or probation. The amendment would not apply to those convicted of murder or sexual offenses, who would continue to be permanently barred from voting unless the Governor and Cabinet vote to restore their voting rights on a case by case basis."
