Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend chapter 436 of the laws of 1997, constituting the welfare reform act of 1997, in relation to extending the current exemptions of income and resources for public assistance programs

AI Summary

This bill extends the current exemptions of income and resources for public assistance programs under the welfare reform act of 1997 by amending the expiration date of Section 16 of the original act. Specifically, the bill changes the expiration and repeal date from August 22, 2025 to August 22, 2027, effectively prolonging the existing welfare program exemptions for an additional two years. The bill will take effect immediately upon becoming law, with a provision that if it becomes law on or after August 22, 2025, it will be considered in full force and effect retroactively from that date. This type of legislative amendment is common for maintaining continuous access to public assistance programs by temporarily extending their legal authorization.
