SB 3279 — Suffrage; restore to Randall Lee McCulloch

Status: Died In Committee

Introduced: March 19, 2025
Current Classification: bill
Subject: judiciary, Division B

Overview

SB 3279 is a targeted piece of legislation whose stated objective is to restore voting rights (suffrage) to a named individual, Randall Lee McCulloch. The bill’s title indicates a single-person restoration of civil rights related to voting.

Purpose and Intent

  • The primary aim, as reflected in the title, is to restore Randall Lee McCulloch’s right to vote.
  • Based on the available information, the bill appears to be a targeted, single-person remedial measure rather than a broad reform affecting a class of voters or a policy set.

Key Provisions

  • The text of the bill is not provided in the available materials, so the exact statutory language and any conditions, definitions, or related provisions cannot be detailed here.
  • From the title alone, the central provision would be a restoration of suffrage for Randall Lee McCulloch. It is unclear whether the bill includes companion provisions (e.g., related civil rights restoration, duties, or oversight) beyond this targeted restoration.

Affected Parties

  • Primary beneficiary: Randall Lee McCulloch.
  • Other potential indirect effects are not evident from the provided information; there is no indication of broader, systemic changes.

Legislative History and Timeline

  • March 19, 2025: Introduced and referred to Judiciary, Division B.
  • April 3, 2025: Died In Committee, meaning it did not advance to a full chamber for consideration in the current session.

Potential Impact and Considerations

  • Practically, the bill would affect the voting eligibility status of one individual if enacted.
  • As a single-person bill, it does not reflect a broad policy change or alter voting rights for a larger population.
  • With the bill having died in committee, there is no immediate effect, and any future consideration would require reintroduction and passage through the standard legislative process.

Next Steps

  • If reintroduced in a future session, the bill would again go through introduction, referral to a committee (likely Judiciary, Division B), potential hearings, and votes in the chamber of origin and the other legislative chamber (if applicable), before reaching the governor or president for final action.
