MISSISSIPPI LEGISLATURE

2026 Regular Session

To: Judiciary, Division B

By: Senator(s) Turner-Ford

Senate Bill 3394

(As Sent to Governor)

AN ACT TO RESTORE THE RIGHT OF SUFFRAGE TO JERLEAN CUMMINGS
OF CLAY COUNTY, MISSISSIPPI; AND FOR RELATED PURPOSES.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE
LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF MISSISSIPPI:

SECTION 1.  The right
of suffrage is hereby fully and completely restored to Jerlean Cummings of Clay
County, Mississippi, who was disqualified as an elector as a result of her
conviction for the crime of false pretenses on July 18, 1997, in Clay County,
Mississippi.  On January 22, 2025, the Mississippi Department of Corrections represented
that after a complete search of its records, the department was unable to
locate any information other than Jerlean Cummings' Inmate Time Sheet.     Cummings
represents that she was finally discharged from the department on completion of
her sentence, and her Inmate Time Sheet reflects an end date of July 18, 2000.
She completed all terms and conditions of her sentence.

The Legislature is informed
that she has since conducted herself as a law-abiding and honorable citizen in
a good and lawful manner.

SECTION 2.  This act
shall take effect and be in force from and after its passage.
