A 3303 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Requires the forfeiture by state officers or local officers of STAR exemption eligibility upon conviction of a felony related to public employment

This bill requires state and local public officers to permanently lose eligibility for New York's STAR school tax relief program if convicted of a felony related to their public duties or abuse of office. It directly affects elected or appointed officials who face criminal convictions tied to their government roles. The key provision mandates automatic forfeiture of the tax break (not just the officer's position) upon conviction, with no option for reinstatement. This policy change specifically targets tax benefits tied to public service, applying to all such convictions occurring after the bill's effective date.
