The Florida Rights Restoration Coalition (FRRC) and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Florida partnered in an advertising campaign targeting people with past felony convictions whose rights have been restored, as well as those who are unsure of their civil and voting rights status. The campaign comes on the heels of seven years of work educating the public about rights restoration and attempts to get the word out to refranchised voters - a job that FRRC says the State of Florida has failed to take the lead on.
The advertising campaign targets Floridians whose civil and voting rights have been restored, as well as those who do not know their civil rights status. After a successful soft launch on September 8, the official launch of the campaign was September 15 in cities across the Sunshine State. The ads are running in Miami, Orlando, Tampa/St. Petersburg, Pensacola, Jacksonville, Ft. Lauderdale, Ft. Myers and Tallahassee.
