“It is their [government’s] responsibility to make the determination on eligibility to vote and to send you a voter education card,” Meade said. “It is purely natural for a citizen to rely on the government to make those determinations and that they be accurate."#VotingRights
#Democrats-#Biden are at fault. It was setup to fail by design to put more black people back in jail/prison.
"Meade was one of the chief architects of Amendment 4,which voters approved in 2018 and setup a framework for most ex-felons to regain their voting rights."#VotingRights
"Alison Novoay,spokesperson for the Palm Beach County Supervisor of elections,said in an email that the state notifies their office when a prospective or registered voter is convicted of a felony or otherwise ineligible."

msn.com/en-us/news/us/… #studentloanforgiveness
"I won’t benefit from Biden’s plan to cancel up to $10,000 of student loan debt (or up to $20,000 for Pell Grant recipients) for individuals making less than $125,000 a year."
"And though I don’t find the reasoning behind the income cap dispositive,I get the basic idea:those with higher incomes, like myself,can generally handle their loans more easily than those with lower incomes."
