PBS SoCal | New Bill To Bring Voting Access to Jails | SoCal Matters | PBS SoCal @PBSSoCal | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 17 hours ago.
California's Assembly Bill 544 proposes a pilot program to facilitate voting for inmates in three counties. While people in county jails can vote if they haven't been convicted or are awaiting trial, barriers like mail delays often prevent participation. The initiative aims to ensure that eligible incarcerated individuals can exercise their democratic rights.
