Amends TCA Title 2; Title 4; Title 22; Title 36; Title 39 and Title 40.

Tennessee HB0445 amends various sections of the Tennessee Code Annotated related to the restoration of voting rights and citizenship for individuals convicted of felonies. The bill revises the voter registration process by requiring individuals to confirm whether their right of suffrage has been restored for each felony conviction and establishes new procedures for restoring citizenship rights, including eligibility criteria and petition processes. Key changes include the removal of previous application procedures, the establishment of specific ineligibility criteria for certain offenses, and the requirement for petitioners to demonstrate eligibility for restoration of rights through a court process.
