 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-

 1 Section 1. This act shall be known and may be cited as the "NY-PROTECT
 2 ACT".
 3 § 2. The tax law is amended by adding a new section 27-a to read as
 4 follows:
 5 § 27-a. Improper suspension of tax-exempt status by the United States
 6 Internal Revenue Service. 1. Notwithstanding any state or local law,
 7 every organization designated by the Internal Revenue Service of the
 8 United States under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code as a
 9 tax-exempt organization as of January nineteenth, two thousand twenty-
 10 five shall automatically maintain their tax-exempt status for New York
 11 state purposes until the earlier of: (a) a determination by the commis-
 12 sioner pursuant to an application as provided by this section; or (b)
 13 January first, two thousand twenty-six.
 14 2. (a) Within ninety days of the effective date of this section, the
 15 commissioner shall establish a procedure or application allowing an
 16 organization that believes that the United States Internal Revenue
 17 Service illegally or improperly revoked its designation as a tax-exempt
 18 organization under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code to
 19 establish to the satisfaction of the commissioner that the organization
 20 meets the requirements of that section without regard to such revocation
 21 or federal status. The commissioner shall designate such organization as
 22 a "state protected not-for-profit organization" upon such satisfaction.
