I am pleased to announce the passage of several important bills for the month of June. These include Senate Bill S1201C, which establishes discount programs for veterans, and Senate Bill S1292A, introducing the Clean Fuel Standard of 2024. Additionally, we have enacted the New York State Phoenix Act (S4686A) and the Broadband Investment Tax Stabilization Act (S4936).
Furthermore, Senate Bill S6696 now allows college coursework to count towards employment requirements for public assistance benefits. Our energy initiatives include studies on micro-grids (S8188 and S8190), hydrogen energy (S8212), and preparing renewable energy facilities (S8617). The Go Green Schools Act (S8402A) supports school districts in converting to renewable energy. Additionally, the Green Jobs-Green New York Program (S9744) has been enhanced, and an emergency heating energy assistance program benefit (S9827) has been established.
These bills reflect our commitment to veterans, clean energy, education, and supporting those in need of public assistance
