Restoration of voting rights call-in day and action on Monday
Monday is just one week from the Voter Registration Deadline, which still gives Governor Beshear a slim window to issue a blanket restoration of voting rights order to all former felons who have served their time, so that all of them will have time to register and vote in this critical election.
KFTC is organizing a call-in day and small action in Frankfort Monday, September 29th, to show the Governor that there is support for restoration of voting rights to former felons, to thank him for streamlining the process, and to show support for greater steps to provide access to our democracy.
Take Action
We encourage everyone to take time Monday to call Governor Beshear to let him know you support his move to streamline the restoration process and that you also call on him to give a blanket restoration of voting rights order to former felons in time for them to be able to vote this year.
Governor's Office Main Line: (502) 564-2611
Fax: (502) 564-2517

Also, if you are able, please join us in Frankfort Monday at 2pm in the Capitol Rotunda. We'll meet, carrying 186 strands of paper dolls, each representing 1,000 people who can't vote in Kentucky because of our extreme felony disenfranchisement laws. We're not aiming to make this a large rally, but the more the merrier.
Thank you for taking action!
