New York City Bar Association Optimistic For 2006

For the first time in many years, the New York City Bar Association looks ahead to the 2006 legislative session with optimism, albeit a cautious one. From Assembly rules reform, to budget, public authorities and lobbying reform in 2005, change toward a better government is a real possibility … Whether this is a sign of a new Albany where productivity and reform rule the day, or just a lucky break fueled by last year’s intense public pressure to fix Albany, remains to be seen [said Jayne Bigelsen, director of Communications and Public Affairs at the New York City Bar Association].
