Assembly advances multiple bills on consent calendar; several public-health measures pass with strong margins
Summary
On consent the Assembly passed multiple bills—primarily public-health measures—by recorded votes (ranging from 143–2 to unanimous 146–0). Several bills were laid aside for later consideration.
The New York State Assembly took up multiple consent-calendar items and rules reports on Jan. 27, 2025, passing several acts (mostly amending the Public Health Law and other statutes) and laying aside a small number of bills for later consideration.
Clerk read a sequence of measures from the calendar and rules reports. Key recorded votes included:
- Assembly bill 1026 (Rules Report 30), to amend the Public Health Law (read last section noting a 90-day effective date): passed, recorded vote Ayes 143, Noes 2.
- Assembly bill 1468 (Rules Report 31), to amend the Public Health Law (effective immediately): passed, recorded vote Ayes 145, Noes 0.
- Assembly bill 1472 (Rules Report 32), to amend the Public Health Law (effective on a subsequent day as stated): passed, recorded vote Ayes 145, Noes 0.
- Assembly bill 1475 (Rules Report 33), to amend the Public Health Law (effective immediately): passed, recorded vote Ayes 145, Noes 0.
- Assembly bill 1476 (Rules Report 34), to amend the Public Health Law (effective on the 120th day): passed, recorded vote Ayes 145, Noes 0.
- Assembly bill 428 (Rules Report 36), to amend the General Business Law (effective 60th day): passed, recorded vote Ayes 145, Noes 0.
- Assembly bill 432 (Rules Report 37), to amend the Economic Development Law (effective 30th day): passed, recorded vote Ayes 145, Noes 0.
- Assembly bill 434 (Rules Report 39), to amend the General Business Law (effective immediately): passed, recorded vote Ayes 146, Noes 0.
Two measures were laid aside rather than passed on the floor: Assembly bill 565 (calendar 1, Miss Pollan) and Assembly bill 418 (Rules Report 35, Miss Lupardo on cannabis law); Assembly bill 433 (Rules Report 38) was also laid aside earlier in the proceedings.
Clerks repeatedly asked to "record the vote" for each listed bill; the transcript shows the read last-section language (effect dates) and the announced tallies. Where recorded tallies were given, they are reported above exactly as announced on the floor.
