  • EPL/Environmental Advocates
    THE NATION NEEDS NEW YORK Each January, the state Legislature gathers for a six-month session to grapple with the pressing issues of the day and to advance public policy that will make our state a better place in which we live, work, and play. Over the years, New York has set the tone for enacting bold laws to protect the environment, to cut pollution, and to improve the health of our communities and people. In the late 1800s we enacted the forever-wild provision of the state Constitution; in the 1980s we adopted the nation’s first acid rain law and the bottle bill; and, we have the most comprehensive environmental quality review act in the nation. It is truly breathtaking what can be achieved when the Legislature focuses and commits to protecting the environment. The 1993 session is a prime example of what is possible – in that year, agreements were forged to enact the Long Island Pine Barrens Protection Act, the Environmental Protection Fund, and the Clean Air Compliance Act! We chose an image for this year’s cover that depicts all that is at-risk if our leaders fail. For sure we have made enormous progress that we don’t want to lose. But, community character continues to be challenged by overdevelopment, we struggle to provide safe water for drinking, and we have too many people exposed to air pollution that can make them sick. As we bear witness to what is shaping up as the most anti-environment federal government (Congress and the Administration sharing this equally), the question for all New Yorkers is: are our leaders ready to embrace the challenge and demonstrate to the nation how strong environmental laws and standards lead to the progress and prosperity we all need? 2 EPL/Environmental Advocates is one of the first TABLE OF organizations in the nation formed to advocate for the future of a state’s environment and the health of its citizens.

  • A Look at the History of the Legislators of Color NEW YORK STATE BLACK, PUERTO RICAN, HISPANIC and ASIAN LEGISLATIVE CAUCUS
    New York State Black, Puerto Rican, Hispanic and Asian Legislative Caucus 1917-2014 A Look at the History of the Legislators of Color NEW YORK STATE BLACK, PUERTO RICAN, HISPANIC AND ASIAN LEGISLATIVE CAUCUS 1917-2014 A Look At The History of The Legislature 23 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: The New York State Black, Puerto Rican, Hispanic and Asian Legislative Caucus would like to express a special appreciation to everyone who contributed time, materials and language to this journal. 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. Johnson, Office of Assemblywoman Annette Robinson New York Red Book The 1977 Black and Puerto Rican Caucus Journal New York State Library Schomburg Research Center for Black Culture New York State Assembly Editorial Services Amsterdam News 2 DEDICATION: Dear Friends, It is with honor that I present to you this up-to-date chronicle of men and women of color who have served in the New York State Legislature. 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.

  • THE STATE of EARLY LEARNING in NEW YORK TOO MANY YOUNG LEARNERS STILL LEFT out Access to Full-Day Pre-K and Child Care by Legislative District
    BRIEFING GUIDE THE STATE OF EARLY LEARNING IN NEW YORK TOO MANY YOUNG LEARNERS STILL LEFT OUT Access to Full-Day Pre-K and Child Care By Legislative District What New York Leaders Need to Do Now Recommendations for 2019-20 Enacted Budget Acknowledgments Preparation of this report was truly a team effort by the Ready for Kindergarten, Ready for College Campaign including Betty Holcomb, Center for Children’s Initiatives, Marina Marcou O’Malley, the Alliance for Quality Education, Dorothy (Dede) Hill, the Schuyler Center for Analysis and Advocacy, and Pete Nabozny, The Children’s Agenda for valuable data analysis and editing. Special thanks to Jennifer March, executive director, Citizens’ Committee for Children and to the Committee’s data and research team, including Marija Drobnjak, and Sophia Halkitis, for the providing data on subsidized child care in New York City. In addition, we want to thank the National Alliance for Early Success, the New York Community Trust, Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Foundation and The Partnership for America’s Children for their support. THE STATE OF EARLY LEARNING IN NEW YORK TOO MANY YOUNG LEARNERS STILL LEFT OUT | 2 OPPORTUNITIES DENIED Working Families And The State’s Youngest Learners Left Out HIGHLIGHTS • The Governor’s proposal to add just $15 million for pre-K for 3- and 4- year olds, is unlikely to add even the 3,000 new seats he promises, and falls dismally short of rising need and unmet demand. More than 100 districts gave formal notice of interest in adding pre-K last October. • 80,000 four-year-olds across the state – mostly outside New York City – still have no full-day pre-K.

HOMELAND SECURITY & KAMINSKY@NYSENATE GOV SENATOR TODD KAMINSKY MILITARY AFFAIRS 9TH SENATE DISTRICT Dear Colleague, Please join me in working toward immediately decoupling state aid from teacher evaluations before the end of this yea?s legislative session. With only five days left, the time to work together and act is now. Action is needed to protect crucial state funding for schools from each of the districts that we represent. Linking essential school funding with the implementation of a teacher evaluation system which has been universally discredited and rushed makes little sense. Moreover, evidence demonstrates that many schools are having difficulty meeting the Albany-mandated criteria, raising deep concerns that the impending deadline will negatively impact public students. So far, only 121 out of the over 700 school districts in the state have submitted evaluation plans. Our children’s education is too important for partisan politics. That is why I urge you to join me in doing the right thing for our children, families and schools by signing on to my letter urging Majority Leader Flanagan to bring Senate Bill S.7632 to the floor for a vote. By putting partisanship aside and working together we can ensure all of New York’s public school districts receive the state funds they were promised.

    The Geography—and New Politics—of Housing in New York City Public Housing Tom Waters, Community Service Society of New York, November 2018 The 178,000 public housing apartments owned and operated by the New York City Housing Authority are often de- scribed as “a city within a city.” The Community Service Society has estimated the numbers of public housing apartments for the New York City portion of each legislative district in the city. These estimates were made by assigning buildings within public housing developments to legislative districts based on their addresses.

First, we will take this opportunity to reiterate our strong support for the PAVE-NY and BRIDGE-NY programs enacted as part of the 2016-17 state budget. These initiatives have provided invaluable funding for additional road paving, and bridge and culvert work for both the state and local systems, and we will look forward to their continuation this year and in future years. Nevertheless, as we continue to address the sustainable future of New York’s locally maintained transportation infrastructure, we must once again highlight the Consolidated Highway Improvement Program (CHIPS), which as you know makes the key difference for so many local communities, economies, governments, motorists, and taxpayers throughout the state.
