The bill amends section 921.0024 of the Florida Statutes to enhance the information provided on sentencing scoresheets regarding the restoration of voting rights for individuals convicted of felonies. It introduces new provisions that require sentencing scoresheets to include specific notices about voting rights as outlined in the Florida Constitution. This includes details on disqualifications from voting due to felony convictions and the conditions under which voting rights can be restored. Additionally, the bill mandates that defendants receive a copy of the scoresheet, which contains this information, prior to the imposition of their sentence.

The new legal language inserted into the statute emphasizes the importance of informing defendants about how their sentences may affect their voting eligibility. It clarifies that individuals convicted of felonies, except for murder or felony sexual offenses, will have their voting rights restored upon completing all terms of their sentence, including parole or probation. The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2026, ensuring that defendants are adequately informed about their voting rights during the sentencing process.
