The New York Legislature convened on June 6, 2025, to discuss several key legislative measures, with a focus on amending various laws affecting social services, public health, and municipal regulations.

During the session, multiple bills were presented for consideration. Notably, Assembly Bill 66, aimed at amending the social service law, was laid aside. Similarly, Assembly Bill 173, which seeks to amend the not-for-profit corporation law, was also set aside after a motion by Assembly Member Pollan.

Assembly Bill 584c, proposed by Assembly Member Steck to amend labor law, and Assembly Bill 654b, introduced by Assembly Member Rosenthal to amend the Emergency Tenant Protection Act of 1974, were both laid aside without further discussion.

In contrast, Assembly Bill 697, presented by Assembly Member Gonzales Rojas to amend the public health law, was advanced and subsequently passed with a unanimous vote of 142 in favor and none against. This bill is expected to take effect immediately upon passage.

Another significant measure, Assembly Bill 1985c, also sponsored by Pollan, aimed at amending the public health law, was similarly advanced and passed with the same unanimous support.

Assembly Bill 2177a, introduced by Assembly Member Lupardo to amend general municipal law, was discussed, and the assembly members were invited to record their votes.

Overall, the session highlighted the legislature's ongoing efforts to address important legal frameworks affecting various sectors in New York, with a clear emphasis on public health and municipal governance. The unanimous support for the advanced bills indicates a collaborative approach among assembly members on these critical issues.
