S 4772 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Revokes the public pension of a public officer who stands convicted on an impeachment

This bill revokes public pensions for state officials convicted of impeachment, applying retroactively to all such convictions. It directly affects public officers defined as elected leaders, certain appointed officials (like department heads or judges), and policymakers who face impeachment. The law automatically revokes pension membership upon conviction, without requiring additional court proceedings beyond the impeachment trial. This policy change eliminates pension benefits for these officials as part of the consequences of impeachment, affecting current and past convictions.
