At the Capri Theater in north Minneapolis Saturday, there was a celebration of a new state law.

A law that restores voting rights to Minnesotans who’ve served time in jail or prison.

“It’s long overdue that we’ve corrected this injustice,” declared Antonio Williams, of St. Paul. “I think it’s long overdue. We talk about our democracy, we talk about inclusion, but we haven’t truly lived it as a government.”
