Official titleShowHide
Resolution calling on the New York State Legislature to pass, and the Governor to sign, S.3103-B/A.6058-A, to require mental health services for incarcerated individuals with mental health issues related to the trauma of incarceration.
The heading above is this same sentence with its legal opening removed. No words were added, changed or reordered.
This is a request, not a law. The City Council is asking the New York State Legislature and the Governor to act, because the subject is outside the city's authority. Passing it commits the city to a position; it does not change the rule.
Summary
Require mental health services for incarcerated individuals with mental health issues related to the trauma of incarceration (S.3103-B/A.6058-A).
