#1 is on the Assembly calendar for a vote. If it passes in the assembly, it will go to the senate for a vote. This bill has the greatest promise and it has the most co-sponsors of our focus bills but we need more, we need this to be law to stop a change in benefits for retirees.
#2 & #3 need an all-around push for co-sponsors which will move it further on the process.
#4 can go and has a good number of co-sponsors already.
We need all members to call their current or past NYS Senators and Assembly members and ask them to co-sponsor this bill. Please urge all of your family and friends to call as well. The phone numbers can be looked up on:
www.nysenate.gov nyassembly.gov
It is very important that the senators and assembly members receive these calls. The more co-sponsors the bills have, the more likely the bill will become law.
The last calls that we made moved these bills into a great position. We need to do it again to move them forward.
Jan 13, 2021 Passing of Harry Morse, past Vice President of the National NYCPD 10-13
Dear Presidents: It is with deepest sadness, and a heavy heart that I inform you of the sudden passing of Harry Morse
Harry was my National NYCPD 10-13 Florida Advisor, past Vice President of the National NYCPD 10-13 as well as past President of the Verrazano 10-13. He was truly an asset to our organizations as well as a valued friend. He will be truly missed by all. Please keep Harry and his family in your prayers. May he RIP. Frank Martarella

President's Message TRUE MEANING OF 10-13
As we start the beginning of Passover and the coming of Easter, it is my hopes that this correspondence finds everyone well and safe.
I would like to commend our Chapter Presidents, Board Members and their chapter members during this coronavirus pandemic. As I read various emails, social media and talk with our members, I say to myself what a great organization we are all a part of. During these trying times I have seen our members step up to the plate for their NYPD brothers and sisters. The Verrazano 10-13 delivering meals to Staten Island precincts; Chapter Executive Boards and their members, from all over the country, volunteering their time by shopping and helping our members and their families who have underlying health issues. These members are in danger of contracting this dangerous virus, and if they do, there is the possibility that some may not recover from this virus.
Please stay safe and remember, social distancing does not mean that we cannot help our brothers and sisters in any way possible. On behalf of myself and my Executive Board, we hope that you and your families stay safe. We want to extend a special thank you to all of our members for showing the true meaning of 10-13.
Happy & Joyous Holidays.
Fraternally yours,
Frank Martarella
NYS ALLIANCE
