Support for Three Bills Strengthening NYS Government, Opposition to One
As part of our advocacy for open, accountable government, Reinvent Albany reissued joint memos of support for three FOIL bills on the Senate Floor Calendar:
- S1418-A (Liu) / A950-A (Steck) – Strengthens FOIL attorneys’ fees.
- S9777 (Sepúlveda) / A1410 (Rosenthal) – Limits commercial FOIL exemption.
- S10098 (Skoufis) / A10759 (Raga) – Reduces time public must wait to appeal FOIL delays and denials.
We urge the Legislature to pass these bills.
We are also issuing a memo of opposition to:
- A10706 (Chandler-Waterman) – Requires two-person crews on every NYC subway train. This is a new memo, but the bill is virtually identical to S9586, which we previously issued a memo of opposition to.
