Maddy summaryThis bill bans state-chartered banks from financing or investing in private prisons. It directly affects all state-chartered banking institutions by prohibiting them from providing loans, purchasing stocks, or funding any entity that operates a private correctional facility (a facility that would be illegal under existing state law if located in the state). The law applies to all new or modified contracts starting immediately upon enactment. This creates a clear policy change restricting financial support for private prison operations within the state's banking sector.

Maddy summaryThis bill requires all public water systems serving at least 15 year-round residents to replace every lead service line (the pipe connecting a water main to a building) by November 1, 2037. It directly affects homeowners, renters, and property owners in communities with lead pipes, as water systems must cover all replacement costs at no direct charge to customers - though water rate increases may fund the program. Water systems must offer free replacement, provide access to properties for work, and allow property owners 45 days to opt out by handling their portion themselves (with inspection). The law also defines "lead status unknown" lines and prohibits partial replacements that leave lead pipe in place.

The resolution directs the legislative body to pause its proceedings to express mourning and respect for their contributions to their families and communities.

It specifies that supervisors must have at least three years of active licensure, diagnostic privileges, and 36 hours of specialized training in supervision ethics.

Maddy summaryThis bill requires chain restaurants with 15+ locations in New York to display a specific sodium warning icon and text next to menu items exceeding 2,300mg of sodium (the daily recommended limit). The warning states: "Warning indicates that the sodium (salt) content of this item is higher than the total daily recommended limit (2300 mg)." Chain restaurants must report sodium content for menu items quarterly, and the state health department must develop the required icon within one year. Violations carry a $250 daily penalty per non-compliant location. The requirement applies to standard menu items, including combo meals, but exempts restaurants already using comparable sodium labels under other jurisdictions.
