This book reflects the challenges that resolute men and women of color have addressed and the progress that we have helped New Yorkers achieve over the decades. Since this book was first published in 1977, new legislators of color have arrived in the Senate and Assembly to continue to change the color and improve the function of New York State government. In its 48 years of existence, I am proud to note that the Caucus has grown not only in size but in its diversity. Originally a group that primarily represented the Black population of New York City, the Caucus is now composed of members from across the State representing an even more diverse people.

  • Voting Rights in New York City: 1982–2006
    VOTING RIGHTS IN NEW YORK CITY: 1982–2006 JUAN CARTAGENA* I. INTRODUCTION TO THE VOTING RIGHTS ACT At the time of the 1982 amendments to the Voting Rights Act (VRA) and the continuation of Section 5 coverage to three counties in New York City, the city was at a major crossroads regarding faithful compliance with the mandates of the Act. Just one year earlier in the largest city in the United States, the largest municipal election apparatus in the country was brought to a screeching halt when the federal courts enjoined the Septem- ber mayoral primaries—two days before Election Day—because the city failed to obtain preclearance of new (and discriminatory) city council lines and election district changes.1 The cost of closing down the election was enormous, and a lesson was painfully learned: minority voters knew how to get back to court, the courts would not stand by idly in the face of obvious Section 5 noncompliance and business-as-usual politics would no longer be the same. Weeks later, the Department of Justice (DOJ) would not only of- ficially deny preclearance to the city council plan, but would find that its egregious disregard of the burgeoning African-American and Latino voting strength in the city had a discriminatory purpose and a discriminatory ef- fect.2 In this context, the 1982 extension of Section 5 to parts of New York City should not have seemed so anomalous to a country that continued to * General Counsel, Community Service Society.

  • Committee on Election Law Report on Redistricting
    Contact: Maria Cilenti - Director of Legislative Affairs - [email protected] - (212) 382-6655 COMMITTEE ON ELECTION LAW REPORT ON REDISTRICTING REFORM -AND- S.3331 (BONACIC) / A.5271 (GALEF) This report is respectfully submitted by the Election Law Committee (the “Committee”) of the New York City Bar Association (the “Association”) in order to address redistricting reform generally and S.3331/A.5271 specifically. Appended to this report is the Committee’s March 2007 report A Proposed New York State Constitutional Amendment to Emancipate Redistricting from Partisan Gerrymanders (the “Report”). On March 14, 2011, the Senate passed S. 3331, a constitutional amendment relating to reform of the redistricting process. During the debate on S.3331, it was argued that the Association recommends that the redistricting process be reformed by way of constitutional amendment, not by legislation.1 While the Committee is pleased that members of the Legislature are aware of the Report, we wish to take this opportunity to highlight significant and material differences between the recommendations in the 2007 Report and the provisions contained within S.3331/A.5271. We discuss some of those differences here in hopes that the Legislature will adopt the recommendations of the Report during its continuing discussions of redistricting reform. Procedurally, it is correct that the Report recommended proceeding with redistricting reform by constitutional amendment. However, the Report set forth two principal reasons for this recommendation: (1) the amendment proposed by the Association is quite ambitious, such that a constitutional amendment may be needed to avoid quick repeal at a later date, and (2) as of the Report’s issuance in 2007, there was sufficient time to enact a constitutional amendment before the 2012 redistricting cycle.
