Maddy summaryThis bill (C 241) terminates Executive Order 47.3, which had suspended certain laws to ban state employment for individuals separated from the Department of Corrections and Community Supervision due to participation in an "illegal and unlawful strike." The order prohibited state agencies from hiring or promoting such individuals and required background checks for applicants with that employment history. The resolution ends these temporary restrictions, restoring the original Civil Service Law and related provisions. It directly affects former Corrections employees who were separated from their positions over strike participation.

Maddy summaryThis bill requires motor vehicle dealerships to receive full and fair payment from their franchisors for all warranty-related work, including repairs, diagnostics, and parts. It mandates that payments for approved claims be made within thirty days and sets a specific method for calculating compensation based on the rates dealers charge their own customers for similar non-warranty services. The law also establishes a process for dealers to declare their reimbursement rates and limits exclusions to items like wholesale parts, tires, and routine maintenance. By defining "reasonable compensation" and outlining dispute resolution steps, the bill aims to ensure dealers are not underpaid for services performed under manufacturer warranties.
