Privileges And Elections

You ready? Sure. Okay. Thank you. Senate Bill 88 requires persons civilly committed to a residential behavioral health facility administered by the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services to be counted and reallocated for redistricting and reapportionment purposes, counted at their last known residential address before incarceration. So this is just bringing people in a. Committed. Committed to a residential behavior health facility in line with what we did for people that are incarcerated. I have a very unique. Only one in the state facility in Nottoway county in my district, where people are civilly committed there for long periods of time. And the facility keeps growing and expanding. And so there are enough people there that could actually run for mayor of CREW or city council or town council. And it, you know, we just need to fix that so that we are not running town from a behavioral health facility. And so this will also. There are also facilities in other places that this will also affect, but none as much as the facility in my district. So that is the gist of the bill, and I hope it'll be the pleasure of the committee to adopt…
