The bill went nowhere. 4 A failure to compromise sunk Governor Cuomo’s plan to make our state a leader in the development of clean, renewable energy – and in the process create thousands of jobs and lessen climate-altering emissions – by plac- ing the NY-Sun Initiative in statute for 10 years. Both houses passed versions of the bill, but they were unable to reconcile their differences, so when the final gavel fell New Yorkers were left with nothing. It is now on Gov- ernor Cuomo’s shoulders to take action. Real World CONSEQUENCES Despite promises of reform, the Senate failed to pass any campaign finance plan that would finally break the legislative logjam that stalls common-sense solutions to real world problems. It seems to have been lost on Senators Skelos and Klein that New York’s environmental dangers are real. When climate change delivers a steady rain of devastating and unpredictable storms, there are consequences. When manufacturers are allowed to load up children’s prod- ucts with deadly chemicals, there are consequences. And when a legislative body fails to deliver on any of its promises, there will be consequences. 5 Two Ends of the SPECTRUM In 2013, state legislators seemed more interested in gamesmanship and political power plays than working together to get anything accomplished – an extremely disappointing turn of events following the devastating toll that Superstorm Sandy and other severe weather events had on many communities statewide. As a result, EPL/Environmental Advocates is unable to provide anyone with the distinction of 2013 Legislator of the Year. This year’s legislative session brought no substantive action on issues of climate change, fracking, or children’s health. For the second year in a row, none of the environmental community’s Super Bills were sent to the Governor. And the one area of potential achievement – the solar energy development – failed due an impasse between the Senate and Assembly leaving the two houses unable to sort out nominal disagreements. Honorable Mention: ROBERT K. SWEENEY In a sea of disappointment, one legislator in particular stood out for his ongo- ing commitment to our environment. As Chair of the Environmental Conservation Committee, Assembly- member Sweeney (D–Lindenhurst) continued to cement his role as a champion for New York’s air, land, and water. He was the lead sponsor on three of the four environmental com- munity’s 2013 Super Bills, and was instrumental in passing them through his Chamber. The Assemblyman also shepherded a number of other environ- mentally beneficial bills to the floor for a vote including bills to keep mercury out of landfills and a bill to include future climate risks in municipal planning efforts. 6 OIL SLICK AWARDEE: Jeffrey Klein When Senator Klein (D-Bronx) arranged his ascension to his Chamber’s co-presidency, he promised to end the dysfunction that has consumed the Senate for years. Instead, he: prevented common-sense legislation from making its way through the legislative process; refused to use his leadership position to prevent the roll back of hard-fought environmental protec- tions from coming to the floor; voted for several bad bills which could kill protec- tions that Senator Klein and his colleagues voted in favor of in previous years. We had high hopes going into 2013 that bipartisan leadership would finally break the legislative logjam that has stalled so many initiatives in the past. Unfortunately, the 2013 legislative session ended with one of the most dismal environmental records in history. Senator Klein recieves the 2013 Oil Slick Award due to his lack of commitment to public health and environmental protection. The Senator seems more interested in power and press releases than sound public policy. We hope that in 2014 he will act as the leader he promised to be. 7 7 ASSEMBLY scores Super Bills 2013 Score 2012 Score New York SolarFracking Bill MoratoriumClimate Protection &Child Health Safe ImpactsAct HealthyProducts Assessment Green ActEnvironmental ProcurementEnvironmental Justice Advisory Impact GroupCorralling Reports WildSafer Boars SofasIndian PointPrivate Replacement Well Testing Plan 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 13 14 15 Governor Andrew M.

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.

  • 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.

  • 1 December 4, 2020 Hon. Andrew M. Cuomo Governor, State of New
    THE ASSEMBLY STATE OF NEW YORK ALBANY December 4, 2020 Hon. Andrew M. Cuomo Governor, State of New York Executive Chamber, State Capitol Albany, NY 12248 Dear Governor Cuomo: We urge your attention to the growing challenges that acute, intermediate and long-term care facilities, including nursing homes and those that provide care for children and adults with intellectual or developmental disabilities, across the state face concerning recruitment and retention due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Rising COVID-19 infection rates are poised to test new surge capacity plans at hospitals and long- term care facilities throughout rural, suburban and urban New York. We are now armed with a better understanding of the virus, and of treatments and interventions, than we were at the start of this pandemic. Yet statistics, unfortunately, indicate that New York could face the long-feared scenario of health facilities statewide being overrun by coronavirus patients and COVID-19-related safety measures which would hinder access to care and potentially cost lives despite breakthroughs in medical treatments for COVID-19. One of the greatest challenges for health facilities is the recruitment and retention of staff, from doctors and nurses to support staff, nurse assistants, janitorial staff and others. Many facilities faced difficulties with staff recruitment and retention prior to the start of the pandemic, proving that this is a long-term issue that the State must reckon with. The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly exacerbated the situation and we must swiftly provide a plan to remedy it. New York State must use funding provided to the State by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act to support health care staffing.

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.

  • New York Legislators Call on Cuny Administration to Stop Cuts and Layoffs
    NEW YORK LEGISLATORS CALL ON CUNY ADMINISTRATION TO STOP CUTS AND LAYOFFS May 27, 2020 William C. Thompson, Jr. Chairperson, Board of Trustees The City University of New York Félix V. Matos Rodríguez Chancellor, The City University of New York 205 East 42nd Street New York, NY 10017 Dear Chairperson Thompson and Chancellor Matos Rodríguez: We write as elected officials of New York City and New York State who strongly support The City University of New York. We want to express our concern about plans announced by CUNY colleges to lay off hundreds of adjunct faculty by May 29 and cut course offerings for the fall by as much as 35 percent. New York will need CUNY more than ever as we seek to rebuild the economy. The communities that have borne the greatest loss of life and employment during the pandemic are exactly the communities whose members rely on CUNY and who will turn to CUNY to rebuild their lives. New Yorkers from all parts of the city and surrounding region will need CUNY as they seek to gain new skills and earn college degrees. Reduced course offerings, fewer faculty and over-sized classes will leave CUNY under-prepared to support the students whose need for support is greatest. A strong and fully staffed CUNY is a unique and essential resource for New York’s recovery. While we are painfully aware of the budgetary crisis facing the City and State, we believe that the CUNY administration should pursue every alternative before reducing course offerings and enacting mass layoffs. The CARES Act allocated more than $100 million to CUNY for institutional support during the crisis, with an explicit provision about keeping employees on payroll.
