Relates to establishing enhanced attendance verification procedures for members of the legislature

This bill requires members of the New York State Assembly and Senate to verify their daily attendance using a system that combines identification cards with facial recognition technology. Under the new rules, legislators must register their presence at least ninety minutes before a session begins, and cameras will automatically capture photos to confirm that the cardholder is the actual elected member. The law prohibits anyone other than the specific legislator from using their identification card to clock in, ensuring that attendance records accurately reflect the presence of duly elected officials. These procedures will take effect on January 1st of the year following the bill's enactment.
