Summary
Every American Has the Right To Vote Act This bill prohibits states from denying or abridging the right of a U.S. citizen to vote in a federal election based on a criminal conviction. (Currently, some states disallow individuals from voting, either temporarily or indefinitely, after incarceration for a felony.) Further, states and federal courts must notify individuals who are convicted of a criminal offense of their right to vote in federal elections.
