 STATE OF NEW YORK
 ________________________________________________________________________

 9284

 IN SENATE

 February 24, 2026
 ___________

 Introduced by Sen. MYRIE -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
 printed to be committed to the Committee on Investigations and Govern-
 ment Operations

 AN ACT to amend the executive law, in relation to providing for the
 establishment of a nexus with the state of New York relating to unlaw-
 ful discriminatory practices

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

 1 Section 1. Section 300 of the executive law, as amended by chapter 160
 2 of the laws of 2019, is amended to read as follows:
 3 § 300. Construction. 1. The provisions of this article shall be
 4 construed liberally for the accomplishment of the remedial purposes
 5 thereof, regardless of whether federal civil rights laws, including
 6 those laws with provisions worded comparably to the provisions of this
 7 article, have been so construed. Exceptions to and exemptions from the
 8 provisions of this article shall be construed narrowly in order to maxi-
 9 mize deterrence of discriminatory conduct. Nothing contained in this
 10 article shall be deemed to repeal any of the provisions of the civil
 11 rights law or any other law of this state relating to discrimination;
 12 but, as to acts declared unlawful by section two hundred ninety-six of
 13 this article, the procedure herein provided shall, while pending, be
 14 exclusive; and the final determination therein shall exclude any other
 15 state civil action based on the same grievance of the individual
 16 concerned. If such individual institutes any action based on such griev-
 17 ance without resorting to the procedure provided in this article, [he or
 18 she] such individual may not subsequently resort to the procedure here-
 19 in.
 20 2. With regard to the portions of this article regulating the conduct
 21 of employers, licensing agents, labor organizations and employees and
 22 agents thereof, there shall be no requirement that an unlawful discrimi-
 23 natory practice have an impact in the state of New York to be subject to
 24 the provisions of this article; provided, however, that the unlawful
 25 discriminatory practice shall have a sufficient nexus with the state of
 26 New York. Any unlawful discriminatory practice involving a decision,

 [ ] is old law to be omitted.

 S. 9284 2

 1 action or failure to act, or promulgation or maintenance of a policy
 2 that has a sufficient nexus with the state of New York shall be actiona-
 3 ble under the relevant provisions of this article.
 4 3. For purposes of this section, "conduct" includes any allegedly
 5 unlawful discriminatory practice involving a decision, action or failure
 6 to act, or promulgation or maintenance of a policy.
 7 4. Conduct under this article shall be deemed to have a sufficient
 8 nexus with the state of New York where:
 9 a. the person aggrieved is a resident individual in the state of New
 10 York during some portion of the time during which the alleged unlawful
 11 discriminatory practice occurred, regardless of where the conduct
 12 occurred;
 13 b. the conduct in question is related to employment or an independent
 14 contractor relationship located in the state of New York, regardless of
 15 whether the person aggrieved is a resident individual in the state of
 16 New York, and also regardless of where the conduct in question occurred;
 17 or
 18 c. the conduct occurred, in whole or in part, in the state of New
 19 York, regardless of where the person aggrieved experienced its impact.
