A 4163 New York Assembly · 2023 Regular Session

Relates to establishing a green alert system for missing military members

This bill creates a statewide green alert system designed to help locate missing military members who suffer from mental illnesses like post-traumatic stress disorder or traumatic brain injuries. The program allows these individuals to opt in, and when they go missing, law enforcement agencies must verify their condition and report the case to a state division that coordinates the response. Once activated, the alert is distributed through media outlets and dynamic highway signs to gather information and aid in recovery while protecting the missing person's privacy. The legislation also includes an opt-out procedure for military members who do not wish to participate in the system.
