Dear Sisters & Brothers,
Please click here to see updated information from the MLC regarding vaccinations and testing. If you have any questions please send them to me in writing and I will forward them to the appropriate people.
The Legislators did not come back into session before the end of the year, as was originally scheduled. According to an NYS constitutional law, any bills not acted upon for two years or less must be reintroduced. So now we are waiting for the Early retirement incentive bill to be reintroduced with a new bill number.
DC37 is in the process of speaking to State Senator Andrew Gounardes, who sponsored the bill, to reintroduce this bill. I will keep everyone updated with any new information I receive.
DC 37’s Municipal Employees Legal Services is here to help members with their income maintenance and housing issues.
MELS attorneys are here to help if you have received a legal notice, are in need of rental assistance or have a question about a lease renewal, rent increase, repair dispute, rent subsidy, income recertification, SCRIE or other landlord-tenant matters. Call the Screening Unit at (212) 815-1111 or email: [email protected].
I would like to share some updated information about the early retirement incentive bill. Governor Cuomo is not allowing the NY State Senators (legislators) to convene until January.
