! The New Jersey Bar Association endorses legislation to entirely abolish felony disenfranchisement, and enable all citizens to vote including from prison.

It cites the major, major racial disparities in the state of NJ.
New Jersey is one of the many states where legislation to abolish disenfranchisement has been introduced. (via appealpolitics.org/disenfranchise…)

I wrote on this bill last year in @nytopinion : nytimes.com/2018/02/22/opi…
@nytopinion It was (underappreciated) big deal earlier this year when NM & HI legislative committees moved such bills forward one step. Those stalled, but still: horizon has at least changed considerably.

And always good to remember this IS the norm in some states: appealpolitics.org/2019/matthew-d…
@nytopinion finally: @RyanPHaygood & @NJ_ISJ are at the center of the New Jersey organizing & mobilizing around this issue, so if you are in NJ & care, check them out!
