The NY Senate site gives you the chance to voice displeasure of a bill if you live in NY, so my NY followers (or anyone with NY contacts), please sign up to the NY senate site and tell them to void Cuomo's Sex Offender residency/ proximity law amendment to A9505 (Assembly version) and S7505 (Senate Version).

and

As of this day, 3/15, both bills are in their respective finance committees. This proposal also impacts registered humans access to shelters by banning them from shelters where children may be present. All of us should contact the finance committees to oppose these amendments.
Here were the proposed changes to the budget from Cuomo's office related to this issue:

In the Senate Version of the bill, the residency/proximity proposal is under Part XX
The ban from emergency shelters is under Part II (that's the letter I, not roman numeral 2, as in the part between HH and JJ)
At this time, I do not see either of these provisions in the Assembly version,.
STATUTES OF LIMITATIONS
Provisions also include eliminating statutes of limitation for sex crimes so that must be opposed as well.
In the Assembly version, the statute of limitation provision is in Part P.
The Senate version does not seem to have the Statutes of limitations section at this rime.
