BILL NUMBER: S3667

SPONSOR: GIANARIS
 
TITLE OF BILL:  An act to amend chapter 802 of the laws of 1947,
relating to facilitating the financing and effectuation of air terminals
by the Port of New York Authority, in relation to prohibiting the
provision of assistance in the enforcement of certain United States
Executive Orders relating to protecting the nation from foreign terror-
ist entry, at the facilities of such port authority

 
PURPOSE:

To prohibit the port authority from providing any resources in enforce-
ment of the unjust executive order resulting in the detention of immi-
grants.

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section 1 amends chapter 802 of the laws of 1947, adding a new section
10-a prohibiting the port authority from providing aid or resources in
any way to enforce the executive orders issued on January 27, 2017 and

March 6, 2017

 
JUSTIFICATION:

As one of the most diverse states in the nation and the entry point for
thousands of immigrants every year, New York must stand up against
unjust and unlawful actions by the Federal Government. When the Presi-
dent announced the Executive Order, lawful immigrants were denied entry
in to our country, many being detained for days without access to legal
representation. These individuals, many of whom were already residing in
the United States, had already been subject to careful review by the
State Department, Department of Homeland

Security and other federal agencies and were cleared for entry to the
country. This bill makes it clear to the federal government that New
York will not participate in the enforcement of this executive action in
the state.

 
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

2018: Died in Corporations, Authorities, and Commissions
2017: Died in Corporations, Authorities, and Commissions

 
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

None.

 
EFFECTIVE DATE:
Upon the enactment by the state of New Jersey of legislation having an
identical effect, but if the state of New Jersey shall have already
enacted such legislation than this act shall take effect immediately.
