“The Assembly Majority proposed a handful of so called ‘transparency reforms’ today that were passed in Albany. Measures include broadcasting committee meetings and posting committee votes online but these initiatives do not go nearly far enough.”

“The Assembly Minority Conference has vigorously fought for true and meaningful ethics reforms like term limits and pension forfeiture for corrupt lawmakers for years but neither of those initiatives was included in this package. This is a step in the right direction but after last year’s string of corruption charges, we need to move in leaps and bounds, not baby steps.”
