 IN ASSEMBLY

 January 16, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by M. of A. EPSTEIN, ZINERMAN, MEEKS, ANDERSON, GONZALEZ-RO-
 JAS, SIMON, SEAWRIGHT, JACKSON, LEVENBERG -- read once and referred to
 the Committee on Local Governments

 AN ACT to amend the executive law, in relation to prohibiting police
 officers from carrying or using a firearm during any phase of the
 officer's official duties unless the officer has satisfactorily
 completed a course of training that meets or exceeds the minimum stan-
 dards established by the municipal police training council

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

 1 Section 1. The executive law is amended by adding a new section 840-a
 2 to read as follows:
 3 § 840-a. Municipal police; firearm use. No municipality shall allow
 4 any police officer it employs to carry or use a firearm during any phase
 5 of the officer's official duties, which constitutes on-duty employment,
 6 unless the officer has satisfactorily completed a course of training
 7 that meets or exceeds the minimum standards established by the municipal
 8 police training council in the use of deadly physical force and
 9 firearms, and annually receives instruction in the use of deadly phys-
 10 ical force and firearms that meets or exceeds the minimum standards
 11 established by the municipal police training council. All employers of
 12 police officers shall conduct, or provide through another organization,
 13 such training required by this section with sufficient frequency to
 14 ensure there is no impact on a police officer's on-duty employment due
 15 to lack of available training. A police officer shall not be transferred
 16 from such police officer's precinct, command, assignment, post, squad,
 17 or tour of duty as a result of such employer's failure to provide the
 18 training required under this section. In addition, such employer's fail-
 19 ure to provide the training required under this section shall not impair
 20 a police officer's ability to carry a firearm while off-duty.
 21 § 2. This act shall take effect on the first of January next succeed-
 22 ing the date on which it shall have become a law.

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.
