CSEA-Supported Bills Make Progress

Several CSEA-supported bills made progress this week, including:

• A.7341 (Hevesi) / S.6357 (Mannion): This bill would allow Child Protective Services workers to complete certain required training through distance learning methods. This bill passed the Assembly and advanced out of committee in the Senate.

• A.9003 (Eachus) / S.4132 (Mannion): This bill prevents outsourcing during a hiring freeze. This bill advanced out of committee in the Assembly.

• A.9349 (Pheffer Amato) / S.8551 (Jackson): This bill would require the Department of Civil Service to review and update exams every five years. This bill advanced out of committee in the Senate.

CSEA will be working hard to ensure that these bills, and others, cross the finish line before the end of session on June 6.
