Senate approves multiple bills across codes; full-day calendar ends with roll calls

The New York State Senate took up its calendar and recorded final actions on a series of bills spanning the vehicle and traffic law, environmental conservation law, executive law, penal law, public health law and other statutes. Several bills were read, roll calls were taken and the clerk announced recorded results throughout the floor session.

The clerk read Senate Print 13 56 (enacting in the vehicle and traffic law) and the Senate recorded "Bill is passed." The clerk then read multiple calendar items and the Senate recorded passage on numerous measures. Notable entries on the calendar included:

- Senate Print 2 79 (executive law): announced as passed (clerk recorded: "I, 61").

- A bill identified by centiprint 925 (real property actions and proceedings law): after roll call the clerk announced a corrected tally of "Ayes, 56; Nays, 5," and the bill was recorded as passed.

- Calendar items in the agricultural markets, public health, public authorities, general business and penal code areas were read and, where recorded, the clerk announced passage with recorded aye counts commonly reported as 61 in favor on multiple measures.

The clerk and presiding officers occasionally read and corrected vote tallies on the floor; in some roll calls the clerk read the names of senators voting in the negative (for example, in relation to one calendar item the clerk listed senators voting in the negative as: Ashley, Burrello, Obel Rector, Palumbo, State, Tedisco, and Weber). The calendar concluded with Senator Jean Arasette completing the reading of the day's calendar and the Senate adjourning until Tuesday, March 4 at 3 p.m.

Because the day's action covered dozens of calendar items, the Senate recorded passage for many bills by roll call or voice vote; the text above summarizes the identified identifiers, statute areas and recorded tallies that appear in the transcript.
