MODERATE
The bill was amended to add new sponsors and update its procedural status after committee review. The most significant substantive change is the expansion of the timeline for when the New York City Housing Authority must use specific voter registration procedures, shifting the effective date from 2023 to 2028.
Scope change
The bill's scope regarding the New York City Housing Authority's obligations was modified by delaying the implementation of new registration procedures by five years.
PROCEDURAL
Added a new provision stating that the New York City Housing Authority will use specific procedures starting January 1, 2028, instead of the previous 2023 date.
Added a list of new sponsors to the bill, including Representatives Reyes, Pheffer Amato, O'Pharrow, and others.
Updated the bill's status to reflect that it was read once, referred to the Committee on Election Law, discharged from that committee, amended, and recommitted.
TIMELINE
Extended the effective date for the New York City Housing Authority's new voter registration requirements from January 1, 2023, to January 1, 2028.
