The Iowa House overwhelmingly passed a proposed constitutional amendment that would restore voting rights for felons who have completed their sentences, a major step forward for one of Gov. Kim Reynolds’ key priorities.
I like this law. I also like the part about protecting the employers.
I disagree, respectfully. They lost them through their own actions, it won’t hurt them to put some effort into getting them back. Anything worth having is worth working for.
Many Republicans want to require complete payment of victim restitution, which can be tens of thousands of dollars, before felons become eligible to vote.
If your still paying victim restitution, you havn’t completed your sentence.
