Watchdog groups Citizens Union, Committee to Reform the State Constitution, Common Cause NY, New York City Bar Association, NYPIRG, Reinvent Albany and the Sexual Harassment Working Group have submitted a new amicus brief to the New York State Court of Appeals supporting the constitutionality of the appointment process for the New York State Commission on Ethics and Lobbying in Government (COELIG). The new brief to the Court of Appeals argues that COELIG’s appointment process is constitutional and earlier decisions by lower court judges were wrong. These lower court decisions were made in response to a 2023 lawsuit by former Governor Andrew Cuomo that challenged COELIG’s order that he return the $5 million he earned for writing a book about his administration’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.

City Bar Expresses Concern about the Reform of the Mexican Judiciary The New York City Bar Association has expressed, in a new report, serious concern regarding a proposal by outgoing Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador to overhaul Mexico’s judicial selection process. The reform “can have the adverse effect of seriously harming the independence of Mexico’s judiciary,” the report says. The report outlines Mr. López Obrador’s history of attacks on the independence of Mexico’s judiciary, reviews the substance of his proposed changes, and “urges President López Obrador and President-elect Claudia Sheinbaum to recognize the importance of an independent judiciary for the rule of law and to respect judicial independence consistent with international law and Mexico’s international commitments.” “The City Bar strongly urges the Mexican government to carefully consider all concerns raised by [these] civic organizations—including civil society, academia, and national and international experts, like the UN Special Rapporteur—and hold a broad and transparent debate process weighing the merits of changes to the judiciary,” states the report.

"New Yorkers need this constitutional amendment to ensure the full protection of their rights; currently, the state’s constitution explicitly bans only racial and religious discrimination. But as of now, Prop 1 will not get a fair chance to succeed because of a flaw in the election-day ballot." Natalie Birnbaum and Susan Cersovsky are co-chairs of the Sex and Law Committee of the New York City Bar Association. Kyla Magun is a committee member. Read more here: https://bit.ly/4fMzDZH
Commentary: Simplify the ballot language of Prop 1’s Equal Rights Amendment
