Bill A9964 Passed

Read below for the full update from ACRE.

ACRE thanks Senator Ramos and Assemblywomen Joyner for sponsoring and fighting for the passage of light duty legislation for pregnant workers on Metro North Railroad.

ACRE Achievement: We raised the issue, drove the media push, and lobbied both chambers until A.9964/S.8831 became NY State law — securing light duty for pregnant railroad workers at their regular rate of pay, with no loss of benefits or seniority.
