| * | Julie Menin | | | Prohibiting the dissemination of materially deceptive audio or visual media in local elections. | Introduction | This bill would prohibit the dissemination of videos, images, or sound recordings that have been intentionally manipulated to depict speech or conduct by a local candidate for office that did not actually occur, but which appears from the video, image, or sound recording to be genuine. The prohibition would only pertain to conduct intended to influence the results of a local election or injure the reputation of a candidate, and only apply within 60 days of a primary, special, or general election. | | |

| * | Althea V. Stevens | | | Improving young adults’ access to voter registration materials. | Introduction | Under Section 3-209 of the City’s Administrative Code, high schools must make voter registration materials available to students during the year and must provide postage-paid voter registration materials to graduating seniors. This bill would require the city Department of Education to ask for, and the city Board of Elections to provide, registration materials in any available language (as determined by state or federal requirements) that makes sense for a particular school’s student population. The city Board of Elections also must code its registration forms so that it can track which forms come back from each school district. The bill also would require both the city Department of Education and the city Board of Elections to help track and report on whether these student voter registration efforts are effective in getting young adults to register to vote. | | |

| * | Gale A. Brewer | | | Providing survivors of domestic violence with guidance on making voter registration records confidential and voting by special ballot. | Introduction | This bill would require the Campaign Finance Board to develop and regularly update guidance on the procedures under the New York State Election Law for making a voter record confidential and for voting by special ballot. In addition, the bill would require the Office to End Domestic and Gender–Based Violence (ENDGBV) to distribute such guidance to individuals receiving services at Family Justice Centers, and to provide such individuals with assistance in preparing and submitting written statements to the Board of Elections for the purpose of making their voter records confidential or establishing their eligibility to vote by special ballot. ENDGBV would also be required to collaborate with other city agencies to distribute such guidance. | | |

| * | Lynn C. Schulman | | | Adjustment of contribution and expenditure limits to account for two-year council terms. | Introduction | This bill would change the frequency with which the Campaign Finance Board recalculates contribution and expenditure limits to account for changes in the consumer price index from once every four years to once every local general election. This means that, in those instances that occur once every 20 years in which members of the Council serve two-year terms, the contribution and expenditure limits for candidates for the Council will be recalculated prior to the next general election. | | |
