Includes assault upon a school bus operator, monitor, or attendant as assault in the second degree

This bill expands the definition of second-degree assault under New York's penal law to specifically include attacks on school bus operators, monitors, or attendants. It directly affects school bus staff by ensuring that intentional physical harm caused to them during their work is classified as a more serious second-degree assault offense. The key provision amends existing law to add a new subsection stating that causing injury to these individuals with intent constitutes second-degree assault. This change creates a clearer legal standard for prosecuting assaults targeting school transportation personnel.
