    2019 ALBANY SOMOS CONFERENCE Saturday, March 9, 2019 Hon. Carl E. Heastie, Speaker Empire State Plaza Convention Center, Albany, New York Hon. Maritza Davila, Chair MORNING SESSIONS (10:00 AM – 11:45 AM) Equal Access to Driver’s Licenses for All New Yorkers Hearing Room A CO-MODERATORS: Assemblyman Marcos Crespo & Senator Luis Sepúlveda DESCRIPTION: There are 750,000 New Yorkers that are unable to obtain driver’s licenses because of their immigration status. In rural areas throughout the Empire state, public transportation is either infrequent, hard to access, or nonexistent. In these areas, driving becomes a privilege many people don’t think about – providing an avenue to commute to work, pick-up children from school, travel to doctor’s appointments, and fulfill many other essential tasks. If New York were to enact the Driver’s License Access and Privacy Act, it would join twelve states, Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico in providing access to licenses for undocumented immigrants. Join us for a panel to discuss the need for this legislation and the ongoing Green Light Campaign that brings together community members, leaders and activists with the shared goal of obtaining equal access to driver’s licenses for all New Yorkers. PANELISTS: Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Kings County; Emma Kreyche, Statewide Coordinator, Green Light NY Campaign, Worker Justice Center of New York; Nestor Marquez, Westchester Member, Make the Road New York Securing the Future of New York’s Dreamers Hearing Room B CO-MODERATORS: Assemblywoman Carmen De La Rosa & NYC Councilman Francisco Moya DESCRIPTION: In early 2019, the historic José Peralta New York State DREAM Act (S.1250 / A.782) passed through the state legislature.

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.

    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.

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.

  • Limited Appearance Statement Of
    July 26, 2013 By US Mail Commissioner Allison M. Macfarlane U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Mail Stop 0-16G4 Washington, DC 20555 Dear Allison M. Macfarlane, Enclosed is a copy of "Generating Influence," Common Cause/New York's comprehensive study of Entergy Corporation's political spending and public relations campaign to secure new operating licenses for the Indian Point nuclear power plant in Buchanan, New York. As you are well aware, Entergy is currently in the late stages of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission license renewal process that began in 2007. While Common Cause takes no position on the relicensing of Indian Point, we strongly believe that the final decision should be based on objective analysis of the costs and benefits and not unduly shaped by the well-funded lobbying, campaign contributions, and publicity campaigns of Entergy Corporation. As such, it is crucial that NRC officials are fully aware of the extraordinary extent to which the appearance of "public support" for the Indian Point nuclear power plant appears to have been generated by the deceptive strategies of Entergy Corporation. In addition to the "inside game" of lobbying and campaign contributions, Entergy has engaged in an extensive "outside game" of public relations and grassroots "astroturfing" strategies. From making targeted campaign contributions and hiring former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani to appear in an advertising campaign, to cultivating influential"front group" coalitions of business interests, unions, local political leaders, and non-profits (NY AREA and SHARE), Entergy is working the full spectrum of lobbying and publicity strategies in an all-out effort to keep Indian Point open.

He has served on the Ways and Means Committee since 2007. He was a key Democratic supporter of the 2008 bailout of the financial services industry -- loudly berating Republicans on the House floor as an initial bailout bill went down to defeat -- as well as subsequent help for the automobile industry. In addition to his post as caucus vice chairman -- the fifth-ranking post in the Democratic leadership -- Crowley is also a finance chairman for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, the political arm of House Democrats, and serves on the Steering and Policy Committee. He has a garrulous personality to match his burly, 6-foot-4 frame. He's been known to break into song and is generally well-liked by friend and foe alike. Crowley has been a solid supporter of Democratic Party positions, as illustrated by the ratings he has received from organizations on opposite ends of the political spectrum: A lifetime score of 90 percent-plus from the liberal Americans for Democratic Action and 8 percent, through 2012, from the American Conservative Union He favors abortion rights, gun control and same-sex marriage.

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 LEGISLATURE STATE OF NEW YORK ALBANY January 14, 2021 Honorable Bill de Blasio Mayor of the City of New York City Hall, New York, NY 10007 Dear Mayor de Blasio: In these diffiCult times, we applaud you and the Chancellor for starting the hard work of developing a proaCtive plan to Close the “COVID aChievement gap” experienced by many students throughout the City. 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.
