The sponsor's argument

Why the sponsor says this is needed

Currently, the NYCDOE is required to reimburse for transportation of students in grades K-6, who attend school from 9:30 AM (or earlier) for regularly scheduled academic classes through 4:00 PM or later. This highly successful program has been a lifeline for parents across New York City. Unfortunately, there are students who attend a school where academic classes end before 4pm, but the students still remain at the school to receive remedial or tutoring help, childcare, or to do their homework. Under the current law, these students are not allowed to get transporta- tion from NYCDOE. This oversight has been challenging, especially in cases when one sibling attends class until 4pm and can take the bus, while another sibling who attends the same school and stays until after 4pm with a tutor, would not be able to take the bus. This legislation would correct this oversight and help many hard-working parents.

This is the sponsor's own case for the bill, quoted from their memorandum. It is not Agora's description of what the bill does.
