What A 8625 does, verified January 9, 2026

The bill aims to clarify the definition of "covered operations" under the Military Law of New York. A "covered operation" refers to military operations designated by the federal government in support of specific operations, such as Operation Enduring Freedom, Operation Iraqi Freedom, or Homeland Security operations. This definition includes active military service under US law and may include additional designations on a case-by-case basis. The bill takes effect immediately, updating the definition of "covered operations" to align with the federal government's designations.
