By requiring those on student visas to depart the U.S. until in-person classes resume, ICE is placing an unjust burden on these students. As you know, the evolving nature of the COVID-19 pandemic has forced school systems across the country to implement remote learning so that students can continue their education without the risk of exposure. Although some states have made strides in overcoming the peak of the virus, precautions are still being taken to prevent a second wave. This includes universities that have opted to maintain remote learning for the upcoming fall semester. Accessing online courses requires a consistent WiFi connection so that students can complete their coursework and partake in instruction outside of the virtual classroom.

  • Letter to Charles-Lavine.21.03.17
    New York State Assembly KEVIN M. BYRNE KIERAN M. LALOR Assemblyman 94th District Assemblyman 105th District Westchester & Putnam Counties Dutchess County March 17, 2021 Honorable Charles D. Lavine Assemblymember & Chair of the Assembly Judiciary Committee Legislative Office Building 831 Albany, NY 12248 Chairman Charles Lavine: Throughout the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, our state has been tested in countless ways. Our work is not over, and the scandals coming from the Cuomo Administration have only added to the challenges we all face. The importance of the Judiciary Committee’s responsibility to investigate Governor Cuomo and the administration cannot be overstated. While it is important your committee is provided the time and resources it needs to conduct a thorough investigation, it is critical that there be no delays in your work. It would be wrong to afford Governor Cuomo and his administration the opportunity to further misuse his office by utilizing the budget process to impede or influence your investigation. In our state’s rich long history, only one Governor, William Sulzer, has ever been impeached. Like the Assembly Speaker did in 1913, Speaker Heastie has opted to begin the impeachment process with an investigative committee. The allegations against Governor Cuomo are far more serious and more numerous than those levied against Governor Sulzer, or more recently against Governor Elliot Spitzer. Many of these impeachable offenses were conducted in the middle of a pandemic when millions of New Yorkers were putting their faith in the Legislature and Governor Cuomo to be honest with them. The only thing that will restore the public’s trust in our state government is to provide New Yorkers the unvarnished truth in a timely manner.

    Committee on Banks 2019 ANNUAL REPORT New York State Assembly Carl E. Heastie, Speaker Kenneth P. Zebrowski, Chair December 15, 2019 The Honorable Carl E. Heastie Speaker of the Assembly State Capitol, Room 349 Albany, NY 12248 Dear Speaker Heastie: I am pleased to submit the 2019 Annual Report for the Assembly Standing Committee on Banks. Included herein are details of the Committee’s 2019 legislative work, other initiatives undertaken during the year, and important developments since the close of session. Additionally, you will find the Committee’s outlook for the 2020 legislative session where we will continue to protect consumers’ financial interests and rights while helping to improve and grow the banking industry across the State. The Banks Committee made significant progress during the 2019 session, reporting legislation that aimed to maintain and enhance the vitality of our State’s financial industry, expand the banking development district program, address the student loan debt crisis, increase access for consumers in under-banked communities, and maintain sound operations within the industry. The Committee’s significant accomplishments in 2019 include adding meaningful protections for student loan borrowers in the State budget as well as imposing important restrictions on bad actors in the student debt consulting industry; increasing disclosure to consumers on issues such as mortgage lending, allowing credit unions and savings banks to take municipal deposits; and, expanding the banking development district program to include credit unions. I want to thank my fellow members of the Assembly Banks Committee for all the time and work they have put in to serving the interests of the residents of our State.

  • ASSEMBLY Annual Report
    NEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLY SHELDON SILVER, SPEAKER committee on Veterans’ Affairs William B. Magnarelli, Chair Annual Report December 15, 2010 Honorable Sheldon Silver Speaker New York State Assembly Room 932 Legislative Office Building Albany, New York 12248 Dear Mr. Speaker, It is with great pleasure that I forward to you the 2010 Annual Report of the New York State Assembly Standing Committee on Veterans’ Affairs. In early March, I was honored, Mr. Speaker, to be named by you as chair of this important committee. I hope to continue the Assembly tradition of leadership that has been established since the committee was created in 1983. Several significant measures became law this year, including legislation that provides funeral directors, undertakers, and funeral firms in possession of cremated remains for more than one hundred and twenty days a method of determining if such remains are those of a veteran and how they may be disposed of, with the help of certain veterans’ service organizations. This legislation will significantly facilitate the interment of veterans’ unclaimed remains by removing the barriers that now exist, while effectively providing the legal protection necessary to funeral directors and veterans’ organizations alike as part of this noble endeavor. Some of the other measures enacted into law included: extension of the statute of limitations for cases based on torturous exposure of military personnel in Indo-china to phenoxy herbicide (Agent Orange); requiring the division of veterans’ affairs to maintain a small business portal on the division’s website; and the extension at local option of the redemption period for residential property for certain persons deployed by the military to four or five years.

Andrew M. Cuomo Governor New York State Capitol Building Albany, New York 12224 Dear Governor Cuomo: We write to you today as concerned elected officials from across New York, urging you and the State to continue to exercise its constitutional authority to retain existing sanctions against Iran. It is our belief that a deal of the magnitude of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action--which would restructure the geopolitical balance of an already volatile region--requires thoughtful oversight and input from all interested parties. Although it is atypical for state governments and local legislators to play a role in our nation’s foreign policy, we strongly believe that it is our role as leaders to be our constituents’ safety net and remain committed to continuing state sanctions against Iran. As you know, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, entered into by the Islamic Republic of Iran and the six world leaders comprising the P5+1, is an executive agreement that sidesteps traditional diplomacy and statecraft. While we are aware of the significant power the President and the federal government have in matters of foreign policy, those powers were never meant to circumvent the political process by unilaterally entering into an agreement with a hostile nation that is, in substance a treaty, simply by calling it another name.

Without their assistance and commitment this would not have been possible. Nicole Jordan, Executive Director Raul Espinal, Legislative Coordinator Nicole Weir, Legislative Intern Adrienne L.

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.

We reCognize that the details of this plan are still being determined. We write today to make several recommendations for you to consider as you work to address both the achievement gap in academic, social and physical skill areas and the regression of life among the approximately 200,000 students with Individualized Education Programs (IEPs). Unlike other students, this population of Children may never catch up on what was lost during the days of remote learning. With regard to the effort to provide families the option of blended or remote instruction models, appropriate staffing has beCome a Challenge, partiCularly for students with IEPs. This has been detailed in the press and in testimony from parents and other stakeholders at the joint Committee hearing of the New York City Council on the reopening of sChools (10/23/20). Additionally, parent-led advocaCy Consulting group, SpeCial Support ServiCes reCently released a report that surveyed 1,100 parents whose Children require speCial education serviCes during the initial sChools reopening, OCtober 7-26.
