 STATE OF NEW YORK
 ________________________________________________________________________

 4898

 2025-2026 Regular Sessions

 IN ASSEMBLY

 February 10, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by M. of A. CLARK -- read once and referred to the Committee
 on Governmental Operations

 AN ACT to amend the executive law, in relation to prohibiting retali-
 ation against individuals who request a reasonable accommodation

 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 "reasonable accommodation anti-retaliation act".
 3 § 2. Legislative findings. The legislature finds and declares that
 4 reasonable accommodations are an essential feature of the anti-discrimi-
 5 nation provisions of the executive law, including but not limited to,
 6 subdivisions 2, 2-a, 3, 10, 14, 18, and 22 of section 296 of the execu-
 7 tive law.
 8 The legislature further finds and declares that explicit anti-retalia-
 9 tion protections for accommodation requests will help ensure that indi-
 10 viduals maintain full access to the rights, protections, and remedies
 11 available under the anti-discrimination provisions of the executive law.
 12 The amendments in this act are declarative of and clarify existing
 13 law. This act shall not be construed to mean that the executive law
 14 does not already prohibit retaliation for requesting a reasonable accom-
 15 modation.
 16 § 3. Subdivision 7 of section 296 of the executive law, as amended by
 17 chapter 140 of the laws of 2022, is amended to read as follows:
 18 7. It shall be an unlawful discriminatory practice for any person
 19 engaged in any activity to which this section applies to retaliate or
 20 discriminate against any person because [he or she] such person has (i)
 21 opposed any practices forbidden under this article [or because he or she
 22 has], (ii) filed a complaint, testified, or assisted in any proceeding
 23 under this article, or (iii) requested a reasonab
