The Correctional Association of New York (CANY) provides independent oversight of prisons to promote transparency and accountability. 

CANY Legislative Tracker

The dashboard below provides information on pending legislation that would amend policies relevant to the state’s prisons, the re-entry process, and parole. The presence or absence of a bill on this list does not signify an official position of support or opposition from the Correctional Association of New York. 

The data is pulled from the Open Legislation API, which is maintained by the NY State Senate Technology Services. The tracker includes key information for each bill — including but not limited to the bill’s title, description, sponsor, house of origin, status, subject area, and other details. The dashboard is updated automatically weekly on Mondays, and the date of the most recent update appears at the top right of the dashboard. Please note that bill data is subject to change as legislation progresses. For the most current and official information, refer to the New York State Senate and New York State Assembly bill lookup sites.
