On motion by Mr. Levine, Assembly chair says amendments to Calendar No. 237 (A7903B) are received and adopted

The New York State Assembly moved on a procedural housekeeping item Wednesday, when the presiding chair announced that, "On a motion by Mr. Levine, page 28, calendar number 237, bill number A7903B," the amendments were received and adopted.

The action was entered during floor housekeeping at the start of the Assembly's May 20 morning session as members prepared to call Ways and Means and Rules committees to the Speaker's Conference Room. The transcript does not record a roll-call vote, a second, or the text of the amendments; it records only the chair's announcement that the amendments were received and adopted.

Why it matters: The adoption of amendments at the calendar stage can change the text of a bill before it advances for further consideration. The transcript shows the Assembly completed the procedural step but does not provide the substance of the changes, the bill's sponsor beyond Mr. Levine being credited with the motion, or whether the underlying bill itself advanced to final passage during this sitting.

What the record shows: The chair announced the motion and the immediate disposition of the amendments; the clerk and other members then proceeded with ceremonial introductions and committee calls. The transcript lists the motion exactly as announced and provides the calendar and bill identifiers but no additional detail about the amendments or any recorded vote.

Next steps: The transcript indicates committees (Ways and Means, Rules, Cities, Corporations, Labor) were asked to meet in association with floor business, and the chair warned of a possible conference after floor work concludes; the record does not specify follow-up action tied to A7903B. Members or staff would need to provide the bill text, amendment language and any subsequent roll-call for a fuller public record.
