Virginia is one of only a handful of States that does not - TopicsExpress



          

Virginia is one of only a handful of States that does not automatically restore the Voting Rights of non-violent felons after they have paid their debt to society. Simply put - this policy is an ugly remnant of the Byrd machine in the Commonwealth. I applaud Governor Terry McAuliffe for taking very positive steps in the right direction on this issue. In support of that effort - during the 2015 Session I will be introducing a Constitutional Amendment to address this issue once and for all.
