Assemblymember Pretlow, the bill’s sponsor, said the measure \"would ensure funding for state operations and other programs through April 17.\" He told members the increase provided by this extender is $437,700,000 and that \"the total so far is $6,600,000,000,\" referring to the cumulative amount provided by five successive extenders this session.

The sponsor and other members said the extender covers institutional payrolls and other ongoing obligations, including unemployment insurance, the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program, services administered by the Office for People With Developmental Disabilities (OPWDD), veterans' homeless housing and general state charges. Pretlow said payroll coverage includes agencies such as the Department of Transportation (DOT), OPWDD, the Office of Mental Health (OMH), the Department of Health (DOH) and the State Education Department (SED).

Assemblymember Roth used floor time during consideration of the bill to press the chamber on the broader budget delay. \"April 22, which is one week from today, is a date that most of our school districts have to have their budgets set,\" Roth said, warning that districts may have to adopt conservative budgets or cut positions and programs because they do not know what state aid they will receive. \"There are going to be districts who are gonna have to put forth a budget that is very conservative. It may mean positions get cut. It may mean programs get cut because they don't know what they're going to be getting from the state,\" he said.

Roth characterized the ongoing negotiations as slow and said some major policy disagreements, rather than financial calculations, are the primary sticking points. He said lawmakers had enacted changes to discovery laws in the 2019 budget and argued that policy matters regularly surface in budget negotiations because standalone bills sometimes do not receive committee consideration on their merits.

The bill advanced from the floor after the clerk read the measure and the governor’s message from Kathy Hochul was placed at the desk. The final section read aloud stated that the act would take effect immediately. The clerk recorded the unanimous recorded voice vote as the assembly passed the bill.

Assemblymember Clark subsequently announced that the majority conference would meet immediately following adjournment. The assembly then adjourned until a legislative day on April 17 and was scheduled to reconvene at 9 a.m. that day, the member who moved adjournment stated.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","New York Legislature - 4-15-25 Session Part 2 - Apr 15, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The New York State Assembly passed Assembly Bill 7923, a short-term appropriations extender that provides $437.7 million and funds state operations through April 17.
