The New York State Association
of Counties is supporting a proposal by Governor Cuomo to create a commission
to investigate the potential benefits of importing prescription drugs from
Canada. The 3-part prescription drug plan also includes a proposal to cap
insulin co-payments at $100 a month for diabetics who are insured & to let the state Department of Financial
Services investigate spikes in prescription drug prices.
Governor Cuomo announced another proposal of his 2020 State
of the State Agenda: Legislation triggering automatic manual recounts in close
elections and establishing uniform recount procedures. Current law does not
require automatic vote recounts, even when election results are extremely
close. The legislation would require an automatic recount in all elections in
which the margin of victory for a candidate or ballot proposition is 0.2%;
& it would ensure that recounts be completed manually.
