Calls for State Government Reform

Calls for State Government Reform

December 17, 2010 – The New York City Bar Association has renewed its calls for reform in Albany, issuing a memo to Governor-Elect Andrew Cuomo and letters to all legislators to urge enactment of ethics and rules reforms in the coming legislative session.  While the City Bar applauds the Senate’s enactment of a handful of new rules and efforts last session to develop ethics reform legislation, these measures still fall short of bringing true transparency, accountability and balance to the legislature.
