S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 1623 2009-2010 Regular Sessions I N A S S E M B L Y (PREFILED) January 7, 2009 ___________ Introduced by M. of A. ZEBROWSKI -- read once and referred to the Committee on Health AN ACT to create a task force on retiree health insurance protection; and providing for the repeal of certain provisions upon expiration thereof THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Legislative findings. The legislature finds that adequate and affordable health insurance coverage is a crucial issue for retired police officers and firefighters and their dependents. State government actions have been inconsistent, protecting health insurance coverage for some groups of retirees, while denying protection to others. The legislature finds and declares that equity and fairness require development and application of cost-effective strategies for protecting adequate and affordable health insurance for retired public employees and their dependents as a means both of providing quality of life of such retirees and preserving the integrity of the agreements made between employers and employees prior to retirement. S 2. Task force on retiree health insurance protection. 1. There is hereby created a twelve member task force on retiree health insurance protection. The members of the task force shall be: (a) the chair of the senate committee on civil service and pensions, the chair of the assembly committee on governmental employees, and the president of the state civil service commission, or their designees, who shall serve as co-chairs; (b) two members appointed by the governor, one of whom shall be appointed upon the recommendation of the New York state AFL-CIO; (c) two members appointed by the temporary president of the senate, one of whom shall be appointed upon the recommendation of the New York state AFL-CIO; EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
