back these voting rights. They should already have calculated what each convict owns, immediately (and not rip them off w/ unreasonable charges either). The suggestion that total charges per inmate should be calculated and provided to each inmate no later than 30 days after each inmate's release (or sooner) is a very good one. A statute of limitations, otherwise, the state will abuse it. Retroactively applying this is a good idea. The right to sue is also good (remove immunity from lawmakers from this particular issue, so they can be held accountable, not taxpayers).

Have you approached any state authorities w/ these suggestions? A very good list.
