S 5078 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to reporting voting rates for parole commissioners

S 5078 requires the State Board of Parole to include in its annual report the specific release voting rate for each individual parole commissioner when reviewing applicants for community supervision or deportation. This mandates tracking and reporting how often each commissioner votes to release people appearing before the board, broken down by demographic categories like age, gender, race, and ethnicity. The bill directly affects parole commissioners (who make release decisions) and the State Board of Parole (which compiles the report). It adds this transparency measure to existing reporting requirements without changing parole eligibility or procedures.
