Looks like Paul is actually working with AG Holder on language for the federal government to restore voting rights to certain felons.

I applaud the start. I disagree with the restriction.

The only criminals I despise more than rapists are child molesters, yet my principles say that once either have completed their sentence their rights should be restored.

It’s at the center of my principle that we want to rehabilitate if at all possible, and perpetual punishment works against that goal.
