Alters the composition of the state board of parole
This bill alters who appoints members to New York's State Board of Parole. Instead of the governor appointing all members, it requires nine members to be appointed by the governor, with three each appointed by the Senate and Assembly leaders (majority and minority). The board will consist of 19 members serving six-year terms, with appointments needed to take effect by January 1, 2027. The current board structure is abolished as of that date.
