15 Resolution 2096, by Senator Ramos, read its
16 title, and recognize Senator Ramos.
17 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: The
18 Secretary will read.
19 THE SECRETARY: Senate Resolution
20 2096, by Senator Ramos, memorializing Governor
21 Kathy Hochul to proclaim March 31, 2022, as
22 Cesar Chavez Day in the State of New York.
23 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: Senator
24 Ramos on the resolution.
25 SENATOR RAMOS: Thank you,
1817
1 Mr. President.
2 I rise today in honor of Cesar
3 Chavez, his legacy and heroic efforts to bring
4 dignity to the farm fields of California. He's
5 perhaps one of the most important heroes to union
6 organizers and American-Latinos alike. And as
7 someone who checks off both of those boxes, I
8 draw inspiration from his persistence and
9 fearlessness every day.
10 Cesar Chavez led mostly Mexican
11 immigrant farmworkers in the fight for better
12 wages, improved health and safety conditions,
13 joining Filipino farmworkers in the historic
14 Delano grape strike and promoting nonviolent
15 organizing through public fasts and national
16 boycotts. Because when the people who feed the
17 world by toiling in the fields are themselves
18 deprived of the basic rights of feeding,
19 sheltering and caring for their own families, our
20 entire community is made sick.
21 In 1968, he undertook a hunger
22 strike to demand free and fair elections, an end
23 to the deadly use of pesticides, and the defense
24 of farmworkers and their children from
25 exploitative labor practices.
1818
1 It took them five long years to win
2 increased pay and the right to unionize. He
3 said: "This solution to this deadly crisis will
4 not be found in the arrogance of the powerful,
5 but in solidarity with the weak and helpless. I
6 will pray to God that this fast will be a
7 preparation for a multitude of simple deeds for
8 justice, carried out by men and women whose
9 hearts are focused on the suffering of the poor
10 and who yearn with us for a better world.
11 Together, all things are possible."
12 And I can't help but draw some
13 parallels to the current moment. We're
14 celebrating the formation of the first farmworker
15 union in the history of New York State -- at
16 Pindar Vineyards in Peconic, New York, part of
17 RWDSU Local 338 -- since we passed the Farmworker
18 Fair Labor Practices Act in 2019.
19 And we're still fighting for
20 excluded workers, who went on hunger strikes
21 themselves last year to draw attention to the
22 plight of New Yorkers who are excluded from
23 unemployment despite paying their taxes.
24 And today we fight to ensure that
25 60,000 undocumented children have access to safe
1819
1 and quality childcare in this year's budget.
2 Resolutions like today's always
3 honor the best in our heroes, but as humans our
4 heroes too are flawed. Chavez encouraged union
5 members to join border lines to prevent
6 immigrants from crossing into the U.S., thinking
7 it undermined the efforts of the farmworkers to
8 organize.
9 He would later change his posture to
10 support amnesty, but for years this had been used
11 as an excuse for the labor movement to not
12 support the rights for undocumented immigrants.
13 And today we know this is wrong. New York State
14 knows this is wrong. We know that we all do
15 better when we all do better. Whether it's
16 farm work or construction, our labor movement is
17 more powerful because our struggles are connected
18 and because we fight poverty shoulder to
19 shoulder.
20 I leave you with my favorite quote
21 from this imperfect man: "Once social change
22 begins, it cannot be reversed. You cannot
23 uneducate the person who has learned to read.
24 You cannot humiliate the person who feels pride.
25 You cannot oppress the people who are not afraid
1820
1 anymore. We have seen the future, and the future
2 is ours."
3 I vote aye.
4 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: Thank
5 you, Senator Ramos.
6 Senator Gaughran on the resolution.
7 SENATOR GAUGHRAN: Thank you,
8 Mr. President.
9 And thank you so much,
10 Senator Ramos, for this important resolution
11 today.
12 You know, it's not too many times
13 you get the opportunity in this chamber to
14 actually age yourself, but Cesar Chavez was
15 actually somebody that had a strong influence on
16 my life when I was very young, simply by watching
17 the television and looking at, you know, the
18 horror in the way the farmworkers were being
19 treated.
20 So there were a group of students in
21 my high school, and we all got together and we
22 organized our own club to go out every single day
23 to all of the supermarkets, to stand there with
24 flyers and to urge shoppers not to buy grapes.
25 And obviously it was a very small
1821
1 part of the effort, but I know it took place all
2 over the United States of America. And
3 eventually they were able to win their rights
4 because of support from across the country, but
5 mostly because of the brave men and women who
6 struggled, who were working, you know, in the
7 farms at that point in time.
8 So I very proudly vote yes for this
9 resolution. Thank you.
10 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: Thank
11 you, Senator Gaughran.
12 The resolution was previously
13 adopted on March 22nd.
14 Senator Gianaris.
15 SENATOR GIANARIS: Senator Ramos
16 would like to open this resolution for
17 cosponsorship.
18 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: The
19 resolution is open for cosponsorship. Should you
20 choose not to be a cosponsor of the resolution,
21 please notify the desk.
22 Senator Gianaris.
23 SENATOR GIANARIS: I have a motion
24 here, Mr. President.
25 On behalf of Senator Parker, on
1822
1 page 32 I offer the following amendments to
2 Calendar 710, Senate Print 2933, and ask that
3 said bill retain its place on the Third Reading
4 Calendar.
5 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: So
6 ordered.
7 SENATOR GIANARIS: Can we now take
8 up the reading of the calendar, please.
9 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: The
10 Secretary will read.
11 THE SECRETARY: Calendar Number 88,
12 Assembly Print Number 5913A, by Assemblymember
13 Lavine, an act to amend the Executive Law.
14 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: Read the
15 last section.
16 THE SECRETARY: Section 2. This
17 act shall take effect April 1, 2023.
18 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: Call the
19 roll.
20 (The Secretary called the roll.)
21 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: Announce
22 the results.
23 THE SECRETARY: Ayes, 63.
24 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: The bill
25 is passed.
1823
1 THE SECRETARY: Calendar Number
2 132, Assembly Print Number 6938B, by
3 Assemblymember Epstein, an act to amend the
4 Education Law.
5 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: Read the
6 last section.
7 THE SECRETARY: Section 2. This
8 act shall take effect on the 30th day after it
9 shall have become a law.
10 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: Call the
11 roll.
12 (The Secretary called the roll.)
13 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: Senator
14 Thomas to explain his vote.
15 SENATOR THOMAS: Thank you,
16 Mr. President.
17 Transcripts are a record of a
18 student's education. They are not and were never
19 meant to be tools for debt collection. And yet
20 thousands of New Yorkers are currently unable to
21 obtain their transcripts from higher education
22 institutions across the state because they owe
23 even small amounts of money -- from tuition fees
24 to library fines and parking tickets -- to the
25 universities and the colleges they attend.
1824
1 This practice is known to some as
2 "transcript ransoming." Transcript withholding
3 is a disruptive, counterproductive and harmful
4 practice that prevents students from being able
5 to transfer credits, reenroll in school to finish
6 their degrees, or obtain jobs that could help
7 them pay their balances.
8 Each withheld transcript represents
9 a student who was denied the opportunity to
10 pursue a chosen career path, denied access to
11 social and economic mobility through higher
12 education, and ultimately denied access to the
13 American dream.
14 My legislation will stop the
15 practice of transcript withholding as a debt
16 collection tool and ensure our students have the
17 tools they need to thrive, especially in these
18 exceptionally challenging times.
19 I thank Leader Stewart-Cousins for
20 bringing this bill to the floor, and my Senate
21 colleagues for their support in standing up for
22 students across New York State.
23 I vote in the affirmative. Thank
24 you.
25 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: Senator
1825
1 Thomas to be recorded in the affirmative.
2 Senator Persaud to explain her vote.
3 SENATOR PERSAUD: Thank you,
4 Mr. President.
5 As you may remember, the last time
6 this legislation came to the floor, I voted
7 against it. And I asked many questions, because
8 of the life I lived prior to coming to the
9 Legislature.
10 This year, even though there are
11 flaws in the legislation, I will support the
12 legislation, with the caveat that my Senate
13 sponsor revisits the flaws that I explained to
14 him that are in the legislation.
15 Transcript withholding is not done
16 frivolously. As a former college registrar and
17 university registrar, I know the process.
18 Oftentimes a student who owes tuition for an
19 entire semester or more will transfer to another
20 institution, pay higher tuition sometimes, and
21 forget the institution that they owe their money
22 to.
23 The colleges and universities must
24 have some protection. We have to look at the
25 flaws, as I explained to my colleague, in the
1826
1 legislation -- and he's promised that they are
2 going to look at that.
3 So for those reasons -- not that I
4 want to withhold any student's transcript, but
5 there are flaws in the legislation. But I will
6 support the legislation.
7 Thank you, Mr. President.
8 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: Senator
9 Persaud to be recorded in the affirmative.
10 Announce the results.

18 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: The bill
19 is passed.
20 THE SECRETARY: Calendar Number 509,
21 Senate Print 8276A, by Senator Mayer, an act to
22 amend the Education Law.
23 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: Read the
24 last section.
25 THE SECRETARY: Section 11. This
1827
1 act shall take effect immediately.
2 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: Call the
3 roll.
4 (The Secretary called the roll.)
5 ACTING PRESIDENT BAILEY: Senator
6 Mayer to explain her vote.
7 SENATOR MAYER: Thank you,
8 Mr. President.
9 This important bill recognizes the
10 lingering effects of COVID on students, teachers
11 and administrators by decoupling state
12 assessments from the annual professional
13 performance reviews and tenure decisions for both
14 teachers and principals during this 2022-2023
15 school year.
16 It is extremely important because
17 under federal law, New York State is required to
18 administer these state tests -- in fact, today is
19 the second day for the ELA test -- for ELA and
20 math for students in Grades 3 through 8, and in
21 science for students in Grades 4 and 8.
22 These assessments are traditionally
23 used as a factor in determining teacher and
24 principal reviews and the granting of tenure
25 under New York State law.
1828
1 In 2020, at the onset of the
2 pandemic, the federal government approved a
3 one-year waiver of these testing requirements,
4 but has since required states to administer this
5 grade-level testing. And in fact, however, far
6 fewer students have participated in the tests.
7 And in 2021, four out of 10 students participated
8 in the state's ELA and math tests. But in a
9 typical year, 80 percent participate.
10 So it is absolutely not an accurate,
11 fair or just way to evaluate our students or our
12 teachers and principals.
13 This test cannot and should not be
14 used to adequately measure gains in student
15 performance and should not be used as an
16 instrument to measure the performance of teachers
17 and principals -- who, I might add, have done an
18 extraordinary job during the most challenging
19 times in schools.
20 The bill has the backing of the
21 New York State United Teachers, the New York
22 State School Boards Association, New York State
23 Council of School Superintendents, the New York
24 State School Administrators Association, and the
25 BOCES of New York State.
1829
1 This is a commonsense, overdue bill.
2 I'm so pleased -- and I thank the leader for
3 allowing us to bring this to the floor. And I'm
4 hopeful my colleagues in the Assembly will pass
5 it, it will be signed, so that teachers and
6 principals know that this year they will not be
7 judged on these unjust ways of determining their
8 merit.
9 I vote aye.
