The Inclusive Democracy Act of 2026 aims to ensure that all citizens in the United States, regardless of their criminal history, have the right to vote in federal elections. This legislation seeks to eliminate barriers that have historically prevented individuals with criminal convictions from participating in the democratic process, thereby promoting civic engagement and inclusivity. Key provisions of the Act include the explicit affirmation that the right to vote cannot be denied based on a person's criminal record, regardless of when the conviction occurred.
