Talk to your NY State Lawmakers
Laws aren't always perfect - sometimes there are unintended consequences, so that's why it's really important for you to reach out and ask your state lawmakers to fix this law.
Please call them today!

Talk to Parent Leaders
While parent advocates can't write laws, they can write resolutions to advise lawmakers when something isn't quite right.
Ask your Community Education Council (CEC) which are your local volunteer parent advocates to write and pass a resolution to amend the law. Your school's Parent Coordinator can help you find out who your liason is if you don't know.
