 STATE OF NEW YORK

 2025-2026 Regular Sessions

 IN SENATE

 ___________

 Introduced by Sen. PARKER -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
 printed to be committed to the Committee on Finance

 AN ACT to amend the executive law, in relation to traffic stops
 conducted by law enforcement officers

 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 837-y
 2 to read as follows:
 3 § 837-y. Prohibition of racial profiling in traffic stops. 1. For the
 4 purposes of this section, "racial profiling" means the detention, inter-
 5 diction or other disparate treatment of an individual solely on the
 6 basis of the racial or ethnic status of such individual.
 7 2. No member of the division of state police, a sheriff's office, a
 8 municipal police department or any other law enforcement agency shall
 9 engage in racial profiling. The detention of an individual based on any
 10 noncriminal factor or combination of noncriminal factors is inconsistent
 11 with this policy.
 12 3. The race or ethnicity of an individual shall not be the sole factor
 13 in determining the existence of probable cause to place in custody or
 14 arrest an individual or in constituting a reasonable and articulable
 15 suspicion that an offense has been or is being committed so as to justi-
 16 fy the detention of an individual or the investigatory stop of a motor
 17 vehicle.
 18 4. (a) Not later than January first, two thousand twenty-seven, each
 19 municipal police department, sheriff's office, and the division of state
 20 police shall adopt a written policy that prohibits the stopping,
 21 detention or search of any person when such action is solely motivated
 22 by considerations of race, color, ethnicity, age, gender or sexual
 23 orientation, and the action would constitute a violation of the civil
 24 rights of the person.

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

 S. 4000 2

 1 (b) Commencing on January first, two thousand twenty-seven, each
 2 municipal police department, sheriff's office, and the division of state
 3 police shall, using the form developed and promulgated pursuant to
 4 subdivision five of this section, record and retain the following infor-
 5 mation: (i) the number of persons stopped for traffic violations; (ii)
 6 characteristics of race, color, ethnicity, gender and age of such
 7 persons, provided the identification of such characteristics shall be
 8 based on the observation and perception of the police officer responsi-
 9 ble for reporting the stop and the information shall not be required to
 10 be provided by the person stopped; (iii) the nature of the alleged traf-
 11 fic violation that resulted in the stop; (iv) whether a warning or cita-
 12 tion was issued, an arrest made or a search conducted as a result of the
 13 stop; and (v) any additional information that such municipal police
 14 department, sheriff's office, or the division of state police, as the
 15 case may be, deems appropriate.
 16 (c) Each municipal police department, sheriff's office, and the divi-
 17 sion of state police shall provide to the division of criminal justice
 18 services (i) a copy of each complaint received pursuant to this section,
 19 and (ii) written notification of the review and disposition of such
