April 8, 2021 Gov. Jay Inslee signed a bill Wednesday restoring the right to vote for Washingtonians convicted of felonies automatically upon their release from incarceration. Under House Bill 1078, roughly 20,000 people would regain their right to vote, according to the state Department of Corrections. Before now, people with felonies didn’t necessarily have their voting rights restored upon leaving prison. Instead, they could regain voting rights after finishing the conditions of their sentence, such as community supervision terms, which can last for months or years. The bill was sponsored by Rep. Tarra Simmons, D-Bremerton, who is believed to be the first formerly incarcerated lawmaker in America. It passed the Democratic-controlled Legislature on an almost wholly party-line vote. Republicans opposed to the legislation have argued that certain individuals should be prohibited from regaining their voting rights based on the type of felony they committed. (Seattle Times
