The bill, H. 3006, is a concurrent resolution from the South Carolina General Assembly that expresses the belief that individuals with felony convictions should not be disqualified from registering to vote or voting if they are no longer incarcerated. The resolution highlights the disproportionate impact of felony disenfranchisement laws, particularly on Black Americans, and notes that South Carolina's current laws extend disenfranchisement beyond incarceration to include periods of probation, parole, or other supervised release.

The resolution acknowledges the historical context of felony disenfranchisement laws, which are often rooted in racism and have contributed to the disenfranchisement of over 4.4 million people in the United States as of 2022. It contrasts South Carolina's approach with that of other states, where voting rights are restored upon release from incarceration or are maintained even during incarceration. The resolution aims to advocate for a change in the state's voting laws to promote inclusivity and rectify historical injustices.
