Bill > A03751

This bill directs the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), a public transportation agency in New York, to rename the Eltingville transit center to the "Iraq War and Afghanistan War Veterans' Memorial Transit Center" upon securing sufficient specific funding for this purpose. The bill requires the MTA to update all signs and related materials to reflect the new name within ten months of securing the designated funds. The legislation is designed to honor veterans who served in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars by memorializing their service through the transit center's name. The act will take effect immediately and will be automatically repealed once the signs and related items are updated, with the MTA's chief executive officer required to notify the legislative bill drafting commission upon completion of the name change. This bill represents a symbolic gesture of recognition for military service members who participated in these significant military conflicts.
