Maddy summaryThis bill (A 1336) requires health care providers to report the number of vaccine exemptions they grant for children, and mandates that immunization information systems (including New York State’s and New York City’s registries) record and store this data by provider. It directly affects health care providers who issue vaccine exemptions and state/local health departments responsible for managing immunization records. The key mechanism is a new requirement for providers to report exemption counts, which must then be entered into existing statewide systems in a searchable format for health officials to access. This creates a standardized, provider-level data tracking system without changing exemption eligibility rules.

Maddy summaryThis bill removes a lifetime ban preventing people convicted of felonies from serving on juries.
