Bill > B00515

This concurrent resolution terminates Executive Order number 47.3 of 2025, which was issued during a state disaster emergency under Executive Law section 29-a. The original executive order specifically targeted employees of the Department of Corrections and Community Supervision who participated in what was deemed an "illegal and unlawful strike" by imposing significant employment restrictions. These restrictions included mandating that the department investigate and report striking employees to state registries, prohibiting state agencies from hiring any employee separated from the department due to strike participation, and suspending various civil service, county, municipal, correction, and criminal procedure law provisions to prevent the transfer, promotion, or rehiring of these employees. By passing this concurrent resolution, the State Legislature is exercising its authority to nullify an executive order issued under emergency powers, effectively removing the punitive employment restrictions imposed on the striking corrections employees.
