ESSAE Submits Memorandum of Support for NYS Senate Regulatory Reform PackageESSAE recently submitted a Memorandum of Support for the New York State Senate's Regulatory Reform Package, which is aimed at prospectively improving the regulatory framework in our state. The Senate Regulatory Reform Package tackles important issues that affect everyone across the state—especially businesses, associations, and nonprofit organizations. Alarming practices such as the abuse of emergency rule making would be curtailed by this package. ESSAE supports this initiative in regulatory reform as it would:
In addition, ESSAE supports SB244 (Ortt)/AB341 (Gunther), which has been included in the Senate's One House Budget Proposal as it is particularly important for nonprofits who receive state reimbursements for services they provide. This bill requires that the effective date of new regulations would not be established sooner than 90 days from adoption in order to give those nonprofits receiving reimbursements an ample amount of time to come into compliance, thus avoiding painful State claw backs.

The ESSAE Government Affairs Committee will continue to monitor the actions of New York State government and provide ESSAE members with the information executives and staff members need to guide their associations and achieve their missions.
