Maddy summaryThis bill requires dealers to register limited use motorcycles at the time of sale within New York State. Under the new rules, these vehicles must be officially registered immediately when purchased from a dealer, rather than waiting for the buyer to handle the process later. The legislation also sets the annual registration fee at $25.50 and mandates that dealers collect a signed declaration from buyers who intend to use the motorcycle exclusively outside of New York. These changes aim to streamline the registration process for specific types of motorcycles while maintaining oversight through dealer involvement.

Maddy summaryThis bill limits the number of hours home care aides can be required to work without their voluntary consent. It establishes a maximum of twelve consecutive hours per day and voids any contracts that mandate longer shifts. Employers must obtain explicit, one-time consent for any overtime and cannot punish aides for refusing extra hours or for filing complaints about violations. The law includes exceptions for unforeseeable emergencies, such as sudden staffing shortages, but these exceptions are capped at four additional hours and still require the aide's agreement. Home care aides gain the right to sue employers for damages if they are forced to work beyond these limits or face retaliation for reporting violations.
