[Senator Jessica Scarcella-Spanton]: Thank you, madam president. It is my honor to introduce Doctor. Verma, his two daughters, his mother, and his in laws to Albany today. They are actually lucky enough to be represented by Senator Mayer, who's here with us as well. Doctor. Verma is the chair Department of Oncology, Comprehensive Cancer Center, Professor of Medical Oncology of Developmental and Molecular Biology at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine. In 2022, through a New York State grant, the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, received for groundbreaking research that produced compelling, actionable results led by Doctor. Verma and Doctor. David Prezant, which successfully sequenced blood samples from over a thousand World Trade Center exposed first responders, including firefighters, police officers, many of whom have been US military veterans. First responders with these mutations were nearly six times more likely to develop leukemia. This study had an immediate clinical impact. First responders identified with the mutation were immediately contacted and referred for comprehensive medical evaluation, enabling early detection, enhanced monitoring, and timely intervention. On a personal note, I will say I have three uncles, two of which were police officers, one of which was an He was an FDNY at Rescue five on Staten Island. My uncle Larry Sullivan passed away from a nineeleven related cancer. So I want to say thank you for your work and helping families to avoid the tragedy that my family had faced. We know that that early detection is key in making sure people get the treatment that they need. So with that, we are honored to have miss, doctor Verma with us today to share his expertise and insight. Please join me in welcoming doctor Verma and his wonderful family today.

[Senator Michael Gianaris]: At this time, please recognize senator Rawlison for an introduction.

[Speaker 0]: Senator Rawlison for an introduction.

[Senator Rob Rolison]: Thank you, madam president. And I wanna thank, senator Generis, for this is a late edition introduction, but nonetheless, one that is very important for us to be able to have the opportunity to recognize today. Today, we're joined, by the youth leadership in government program, from the city of Poughkeepsie. Started in 2025, under the leadership of mayor Yvonne Flowers, who is here today, and Karen Williams, who is director of youth services for the city of Poughkeepsie. I've had the opportunity to meet with this group before in district, and today, they're here at the Capitol. They met earlier this morning, with a gentleman, Jonathan Jacobson, and then they came over, and had the opportunity to speak with me upstairs, in the office and then came down to the Senate floor. And what this government leadership class does is give students the opportunity to understand what what we're doing here, what other levels of government are doing, and the fact that they can do it too. You absolutely can. And they're making a difference even before getting elected to office. They're making a difference in finding out about government, community service, nonprofit organizations that are the very fabric of our communities and, of course, our Senate district. So, just honored, madam president, to have them here today. I know we say this a lot, but we also mean it a lot. These individuals are the future of our communities. They are the future of our governments. But really, you know, they are our future. And, madam president, would you please extend the courtesies of this house to this fantastic group led by a fantastic mayor and mayor Yvonne Flowers.

[Speaker 0]: Thank you, senator. To our student government's leaders, future leaders of our state, we welcome you on behalf of the senate, send to you the privileges and courtesies of this house. Please rise and be recognized. Senator Generis.

[Senator Michael Gianaris]: Madam President, today's resolution sponsors would like to open them for cosponsorship.

[Speaker 0]: The resolutions are open for cosponsorship. Should you choose not to be a cosponsor, please recognize please notify the desk. Senator Generis. Please take up the calendar. Secretary will read.

[Secretary of the Senate (Clerk)]: Calendar number one fourteen, senate print 1688 by senator Scufus, an act to amend the executive law.

[Speaker 0]: We do have a section.

[Secretary of the Senate (Clerk)]: Section two of this act will be effect immediately. Hold the roll. Adabo, GNR Sprueger, sue Cuggins, white.

[Speaker 0]: Senator Barellis, explain his vote.

[Senator George Borrello]: Thank you, madam president. I rise to vote yes on this bill, and also I wanna thank senator Scufus for introducing us for, I think, the sixth time now. But I also wanna take this moment to, to recognize a a now late, member of the Tuskegee Airmen, also, a resident in my senate district. Wallace Wally Higgins of Allegheny County was among the distinguished group of American heroes. Wally Higgins was one of the original Tuskegee Airmen, part of a historic generation of black servicemen who answered their country's call at a time when the same country was still marked by segregation and discrimination. He was recruited into the army in 1943 before he could even finish high school while he was then sent south for training where he was selected for the Tuskegee program. He completed the flight training at Tuskegee and later served in The Pacific in Saipan and Okinawa, helping build roads, airfields, and other infrastructure critical to America's war effort. His life reminds us that the story of the Tuskegee Airmen is not just one of military excellence, but also of patriotism, perseverance, and dignity in the face of injustice. After the war, Wally continued serving others as a professor at Alfred University, a community volunteer, and a civic leader in Allegheny County. He received congressional gold medal, was in and was inducted into the New York State Veterans Hall of Fame by my predecessor Kathy Young, and earned the respect of everyone who knew him. Establishing a Tuskegee Airman commemoration day ensures that men like Wally Higgins are not forgotten and that the future generations understand both what they overcame and what they achieved for this nation. It's really about time that we gave these heroes the recognition that they deserve here in New York State. And, again, thank you for this bill.

[Senator Patricia A. Fahy]: Thank you, madam president. It's with great honor today, and I hope you'll join me in recognizing the Gilderland High School girls track team. If you would stand, please. This is at least a part of the team, the flying dutch, who just had an extraordinary victory in the division one section two indoor track and field championship in Boston last month. The Gilderland girls track team finished first. They set a new record time of three minutes and fifty six seconds to win the 1,600 meter sprint medley relay. And, both of my children ran track in high school and I know that this is a extraordinary record. Couldn't be more pleased to have them here today. They beat the second place team by a seventh of a second, which is huge. We're joined today by Fiona McCarthy, if you'd wave a little. Parker Steele, Lauren Bernash, as well as Addison Velocoupe. Two of them will be going on to run division one, track. Parker Steele will be running with, Michigan State, and Addison will be running with Syracuse University. They are also joined by two rather remarkable coaches, Chris Scanlon as well as coach Dave Kosier, who are also joined here today. Please join. They are the own they were the only public school in their heat of the race. They are now all Americans. They hold the school record. They hold the fastest time in section two history, and they hold the New York state record. And their first in the entire country in this 1,600 sprint medley relay. It's truly quite remarkable. My daughter would be, rather envious, I think. She I'm not sure she had that time in college, but this really is an extraordinary achievement of the their the Gilderland community could not be prouder, but the whole capital region really acknowledges this extraordinary achievement. And, madam president, if you would please join me in welcoming these extraordinary young women and their coaches.

[Speaker 0]: Thank you. To the Guilderland High School track and field champions, congratulations on your championship. We I welcome you on behalf of the senate. We extend to you the privileges and courtesies of this house, continued success to you. Please. Senator Generis.

[Senator Michael Gianaris]: And now the controversial calendar, please.

[Speaker 0]: The secretary will ring the bell. Secretary will read.

[Secretary of the Senate (Clerk)]: Calendar number January, senate president 1514 by senator Harcombe, enact from the labor law.

[Speaker 0]: Senator Steck, why do you rise?

[Senator Dan Stec]: Thank you, madam president. If the sponsor will yield for a few questions, please.

[Speaker 0]: Will the sponsor yield?

[Senator Peter Harckham]: Absolutely, madam president.

[Speaker 0]: The sponsor yields.

[Senator Dan Stec]: Thank you, madam president. Through you, senator Harkom. Thank you. I know that you and I have talked about this bill offline a couple times, this session, and I thank you for your efforts, meeting with some of the constituent businesses that I, brought to your attention that had issues with this. So, I mean, my my questions really are in that vein. We've laid this bill aside before hoping to, make some modifications to it. I'm concerned about a one size fits all approach. I certainly understand that there are industries that have certain problems that the bill is trying to address with who is an employee versus who is a contractor. And I can understand that, looking for a hammer to tap down on some of the the bad actors and the and the glaring problems, is called for, and I support that. However, specifically, the concerns I have are in that last mile courier. Business in my district has expressed concerns last year and again more recently, this session about finding themselves in a spot. They are moving lifesaving medicines with shelf lives and need to be temperature controlled. They are literally a Johnny on the spot to move important medical supplies. And if somebody makes an accusation that, hey, this person isn't a contractor, they're an employee, which again, in that industry, it's the nature of their industry that a lot of them are indeed contractors. But all it takes is one complaint, and now that business is on the hook to resolve this in seventy two hours, or they could be shut down. And the concern is that these medicines that need to get moved, they're gonna simply relocate to another courier, and it's not gonna be a three or four day shutdown until you get it resolved and then go back to work. It it could potentially bankrupt these last this segment of all employers. So my question is, have you met recently with, I know that NFIB has, put out a memo in opposition, I think largely due to these kinds of concerns. What is the status of, you know, the conversations you had with the people that that, that I'm talking about? And is there a hope of further tweaking this so that we again, I'm I'm looking I'm afraid we're gonna catch fish in this net that we don't intend to catch.

[Senator Peter Harckham]: Thank you. Through you, madam president, and and thank you senator for for the meetings, for the discussion. There's a lot to unpack in in your question there. So if I may, and thank you, madam president, that while, yes, we talk about, misclassification primarily in the context of the construction industry. The Department of Labor estimates, madam president, that 870,000 workers in New York State are misclassified, which is I I think, you know, a broad swath of workers. And I think one of the reasons why we passed this bill unanimously last year is that that this bill resonates with with all of us, and through our our, organized labor contacts. But I think the the important thing to recognize is that there is a process here. That someone is not just gonna show up one day and and shut a business down. Whether they be a last mile courier or whether they be a construction site. There there will be an investigation first and and the standard is knowingly misclassified. So if we're talking in the courier space, is someone a contractor, You got to, you know, bring someone in for a day to replace someone. You know, we understand those things happen. That's not knowingly misclassifying. Right? What Department of Labor is gonna look for is a pattern, and then they will inform that employer that that, they do indeed, have a finding, and they have seventy two hours to cure that finding. So if it's if it's a group of of employees, get them paid. If it's a if it's a group of couriers, get them reclassified. You got three business days to do that, seventy two hours. So in fact, I I did meet your question, have I continued to meet? I had a meeting with with the the last mile couriers lobbyists today. Goes shows some proof there is a lobbying group for everyone, the last mile couriers, as they should. They should have representation too. We met with them, but at the end of the day, I feel comfortable that there is enough due process in here, to protect the businesses because we we don't wanna throw the baby out with the bathwater, as as you said. And and that phrase knowingly misclassified, I I think is is where the good actors can hang their hat.

[Senator Dan Stec]: Thank you, madam president. Briefly on the bill.

[Speaker 0]: Senator Stecke on the bill.

[Senator Dan Stec]: Thank you, madam president. Thank you, senator Harkom, for for that answer and for your efforts on this. I hope you're right. I just I've seen how our state agencies sometimes will take the laws written. They're not necessarily there when it's drafted. They're not necessarily reading the debate or, you know, they're they don't have a window into the sponsor's intent. My concern is that, you know, there will be debate over what is or isn't intentional. Lawyers get involved in asking a business, a small business to rectify something in seventy two hours or you're gonna lose all your business and and and potentially not survive that closure. I think I'm a little concerned about it. I wholeheartedly agree that there's need for this elsewhere, which is why I voted in favor of last year and as we'd all did. But having this come to light, I'm concerned that it's a little too broad for now. I hope that, you know, in the pro the legislative process with our partners down the hall, maybe, maybe further amendments will be worked in. But until that happens, because of the concerns I've expressed, I'm gonna be no on this bill. But again, recognizing that the bill does achieve a lot of other necessary things, I appreciate your effort. Thank you.

[Speaker 0]: Thank you, senator. Are there any other senators wishing to be heard? Seeing and hearing none, the debate is closed. Secretary will ring the bell. Read the last section.

[Secretary of the Senate (Clerk)]: Section two, this act should take effect on the one hundred and eighty

[Reading clerk (assistant)]: day of Shaw become a law.

[Speaker 0]: Call the roll.

[Secretary of the Senate (Clerk)]: Dabo, junior high schooler, or Sore Cuddens, Zelner.

[Speaker 0]: Senator Ramos has explained her vote.

[Senator Jessica Ramos]: Yeah. Thank you, senator Persaud. Madam president, I I rise to applaud my colleague, senator Harkom, on this bill, and I really pray that it becomes law. This is really about leveling the playing field for good business. We want bad businesses to close, and if they are indeed misclassifying their workers purposefully, well, we wanna make sure that they are being held accountable to the letter of the law. We, in fact, have several bills working through the labor committee and through the legislature on this topic. And we wanna make sure that workers have real tools in order to pursue the justice that they deserve. I really believe that enforcement of misclassification of workers isn't even just enough alone. We want to be able to, make sure that there are clear standards, in order for, these workers to be able to regain the rights, and perhaps even pay or other recourse so that they're able to be restored as the real employ they are. There are far too many industries, specifically in the digital age, that are taking advantage of this misclassification, and it is my hope that in this legislature and with the governor's help, we'll be able to right the wrongs in the economy and make sure every worker is protected. Thank you.

[Speaker 0]: Thank you. Senator Ramos to be recorded in the affirmative. Senator Martins to explain his vote.

[Senator Jack M. Martins]: Thank you, madam president. I rise to support the legislation. As a cosponsor, I wanna thank the sponsor, for this piece of legislation. And, of course, I encourage everyone to consider the concerns that have been voiced here by our colleagues with regard to the application. But there are are several victims when people are misclassified. One, most importantly, is the worker himself. Oftentimes, doesn't have access to workers' comp and is at risk, and that should be a concern for everybody in this room. Two, it's every other business in New York State that has to make up the difference in the costs to doing business in New York State. We all know how expensive it is in New York for our businesses to make ends meet, insurance being amongst the most costly. And so, again, compliments to my, to the sponsor and to our colleague, but it's an important bill. Let's address some of the issues that were voiced here today to the extent that we can. But let's not forget, this is about protecting businesses and most importantly, protecting the workers of our state. I'll vote aye.

[Speaker 0]: Thank you. Senator Martin is to be recorded in the affirmative. Senator Stecht, explain his vote.

[Senator Dan Stec]: Thank you, madam president. Just by the way of trying to be, constructive and offer a solution here, page one, one word change on the bill, page one lines 22 to 24. Within seventy two hours after the employer's opportunity to come into compliance, if the employer has not come into compliance, the commissioner shall issue stop work order requiring the cessation of all business operations of the employer at every site at which the violation occurs.

[Senator Peter Harckham]: Wow.

[Senator Dan Stec]: Changing the word shall to may would give everyone the flexibility that they want here, but at the same time, some regulator the opportunity to apply a little common sense to realize, hey, this isn't the time to issue a stop work order and shut down every operation for for a last mile courier. So that one word suggestion would get me from a no to a yes. Thank you, madam president.

[Speaker 0]: Senator Steck to be recorded in the negative. Announce the results.

[Secretary of the Senate (Clerk)]: Relation to counter one ninety two, vote in the negative are senators Steck and Walzik. Ayes 54 and ayes two.

[Speaker 0]: The bill is passed.

[Senator Dean Murray]: What the sponsor yield for a quick clarification question?

[Speaker 0]: Will the sponsor yield?

[Senator James Sanders Jr.]: Absolutely.

[Speaker 0]: Sponsor yields.

[Senator Dean Murray]: Thank you, senator. Good afternoon.

[Senator James Sanders Jr.]: Afternoon, sir. How

[Senator Dean Murray]: are you? I'm good. I'm good. Good. And I and I think I know the answer. I just wanna clarify on the original bill, you had, the language said that, in regards to the time frame for which the demand for payment be made, the lien law says thirty days. You would change that to sixty days. I believe in the a print. And can you just confirm that that change has been put back? Is it now is it in fact thirty days now in the a print?

[Senator James Sanders Jr.]: Double check. Your short answer is yes. After hearing from my colleagues, I'm a I'm a reasonable man. Why not?

[Senator Dean Murray]: Thank you, madam president. Briefly on the bill.

[Speaker 0]: Senator Murray on the bill.

[Senator Dean Murray]: I just wanna say thank you. That's that's the way it's supposed to be done. You know, you introduced the bill. We had some concerns. There were industry concerns. There were concerns on this side of the aisle. You listened to them. You made changes that I think makes it a better bill, and I'm proud to vote in favor of the bill. Thank you, senator.
