Yesterday the Iowa House voted 95-2 to approve a Constitutional Amendment that would restore felons' voting rights once they have completed their sentences.
The measure now goes to the Senate which doesn't have much time to approve it.
The Governor has made it a priority. In a statement she said: "Today’s strong bipartisan vote is a victory for Iowans who deserve a second chance. There’s a broad coalition of supporters behind this constitutional amendment, and I will continue working with members of the Iowa Senate to move the process forward, allowing Iowans a vote on this important issue."
Before we the people get a say, it must pass the Senate this year and be passed again by the full Legislature in 2021 or 2022.
So if we ever get a chance, will you say yes or no?
