 Introduced by M. of A. TAGUE, GALLAHAN, HAWLEY, MILLER, DURSO, PALMESA-
 NO, LEMONDES, CRUZ, DAVILA, MEEKS, MANKTELOW, SLATER, SMULLEN -- read
 once and referred to the Committee on Agriculture

 AN ACT to amend the agriculture and markets law, the tax law, the
 estates, powers and trusts law, the labor law, the public health law
 and the workers' compensation law, in relation to establishing the NY
 food insecurity, farm resiliency and rural poverty initiative; and to
 repeal certain provisions of the labor law and the workers' compen-
 sation law relating thereto; and making an appropriation therefor

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Short title. This act shall be known and may be cited as
 2 the "NY Food Insecurity, Farm Resiliency and Rural Poverty act".
 3 § 2. Legislative findings and intent. The legislature hereby recog-
 4 nizes that the agricultural industry is a significant, economically
 5 diverse and productive industry that is vital to the state of New York
 6 and has a substantial impact on the state's economy. That the COVID-19
 7 pandemic, and the subsequent mandates and restrictions, have severely
 8 disrupted the agricultural markets to an extent seldom realized by the
 9 state. Consequently, the legislature hereby recognizes that a comprehen-
 10 sive support structure is necessary to ensure the viability of New York
 11 farms and provide reliable market expectations for New York farmers.
 12 § 3. The agriculture and markets law is amended by adding a new article
 13 24-A to read as follows:
 14 ARTICLE 24-A
 15 NY FOOD INSECURITY, FARM RESILIENCY AND RURAL POVERTY ACT
 16 Section 291. Short title.
 17 291-a. Legislative intent.
 18 291-b. Definitions.
 19 291-c. NY food insecurity, farm resiliency and rural poverty
 20 office.
