There's a petition drive to get a measure onto the 2018 ballot that would return voting rights to up to 1.6 million people in Florida.
Florida is one of the few states that permanently takes away the right to vote, even once people have served their time and returned to their communities. 1 in 10 people in Florida have had their voting rights taken away for life.
As of this writing they are about 16,000 signatures from goal, with 10 days to go.
What you can do:
If you're a registered voter in Florida, go to the link above, and they will mail you a petition for you to sign and mail back ASAP. (You can have more than one voter sign the same petition -- just don't sign twice!)
If you're not a registered voter in Florida, but know someone who might be, please pass the info along. (You can also donate at the link above, to pay for having petitions mailed out and back.)
