Power of YOUR Vote!! Elect people who LOOK OUT FOR YOU!

As you know, I am a passionate proponent for the Restoration of Rights. I developed, designed and spearheaded the Restoration of Rights One Stop Shop Clinic Concept. I have followed each Governor and updated my materials to reflect their changes.

Well yesterday, I was thrilled to be at the table with other key players and stake holders in this process and was able to hear the News! Changes are on the table, Effective April 21, 2014. The changes are as follows:
  1. Persons convicted of Drug Offenses are now classified in the Non-Violent Category. What that means boys and girls is that they request to have their rights restored on-line. This means that if you were convicted of distribution or manufacturing of Drugs, you no longer have to wait. You can submit your information now. Now you still have to have paid all your fines and be off probation or parole( off papers)...but this is monumental!!

                                         Vickie R. Wms-Cullins Restoration of Rights 
                         
                                      Vickie R. Williams Cullins Restoration of Rights


      2. The other change on the table, is for the Violent Offender Category. You no longer have to wait 5 years to apply to have your rights restored, you only have to wait 3.

Now you may ask , why if obtaining your rights so important. Reason being , because it gives you power. What power, you might ask? It give you the Power of The Vote. If give you the opportunity to impact how your Country, State and City is run. Who runs it, shoot it might even be you, who is in Charge.

Now, is your opportunity to become informed, attend Tonight's Voter Forum @ Newport News Waterworks James Room City Center, 700 Town Center Drive, Newport News, VA 23606. @5:30 PM to 7:45 PM
