BILL NUMBER:S7458 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the executive law, in relation to the New York state fallen firefighters memorial PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: Provides that any firefighter who is killed while performing services in the line of duty be included on the fallen firefighters memorial SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: The Executive Law is amended by adding a new section 159-a which expands inclusion on the Fallen Firefighter Memorial, and directs the Fallen Firefighter Selection Committee to amend its election criteria to comply with this new section. JUSTIFICATION: Before its inception in 1995, the operation and mission of the Fallen Firefighters Memorial was decided through an extensive collaboration between the Executive branch and firefighters from across the state, including paid and non-paid. It was decided then, under Governor George Pataki, that any firefighter despite receiving a salary or not, deserved to be recognized and remem- bered by having their name inscribed on the wall in New York state's capital.
