S 663 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Removes the requirement of the state liquor authority to have not more than two members of the authority belong to the same political party

This bill (S 663) removes a rule requiring that no more than two members of the state liquor authority belong to the same political party. It directly affects the composition of the state alcohol beverage control board by eliminating this party balance requirement. The change modifies the law to allow the governor to appoint authority members without regard to political party representation. The bill does not alter the authority's duties, funding, or alcohol regulations.
