‘For generations, most Alabamians convicted of a felony were barred from ever voting in the state again, but the Definition of Moral Turpitude Act, a new law passed by the state Legislature and signed by Gov. Kay Ivey in May, cleared the way for thousands of felons to restore their voting rights.’

This does not be an action by a federal court forced upon Alabama but as sit should be, an action of the state’s legislature and governor.

You should have thought of that before you committed the crime.

Actions have consequences.
