US Vote's Voting Rights Restoration Resource

Voting Rights Restoration Clarified

If you've been convicted and lost your voting rights, you can restore your right to vote in every state! 

In partnership with Hip Hop Caucus, U.S. Vote Foundation (US Vote) has created a comprehensive, up-to-date, easy-to-understand resource to guide voters through the ups and downs of formerly incarcerated citizen disenfranchisement.

There are variations in how the states address voting by formerly incarcerated citizens and those with misdemeanors. Take nothing for granted - get informed. US Vote has made it easier for you. We created a resource to allow voters and policy makers to easily navigate and understand the complex patchwork of laws regarding ex-offender disenfranchisement and re-enfranchisement.

Additionally, US Vote has worked hard to include all aspects of criminal disenfranchisement for all Americans, all in one place! This means that the US Vote Voting Rights Restoration resource includes information on misdemeanor disenfranchisement, not just felony disenfranchisement, and includes US territories, not just the states.
