Summary

The bill would reinstate the right to vote for John Cook, a resident of Lamar County who lost his suffrage after being convicted of grand larceny and burglary in the 1980s. It notes that he completed his sentences in 1992 and has since lived as a law‑abiding citizen. Restoring his voting rights would allow him to participate in Mississippi elections again.
