PreCheck gives you a few special perks once youâre in the security line. You get to keep your shoes, belt, and jacket on. You donât have to remove your laptop from your carry-on bag. And you donât have to remove your â3-1-1â baggie of toiletries, either.
State approaches to felon disenfranchisement vary tremendously. In Maine and Vermont, felons never lose their right to vote, even while they are incarcerated. In Florida, Iowa, Kentucky, and Virginia, felons and ex-felons permanently lose their right to vote, without a pardon from the governor.
State Rights Denied. Rights denied convicted felons vary in each state. Common denials include the right to vote, sit on juries, and run for or hold public office. Persons convicted of felonies may also be denied access to state employment or contracts, though this depends on the exact nature of the felony conviction.
