New York A05972 amends the executive law to provide language translation services for census self-reporting.

New York A05972 amends the executive law by adding a new section 154 to extend census-related translation services to those who need more than what the U.S. Census Bureau provides. The Department of State, through the Secretary of State, will identify existing translation services and work with state agencies to determine their suitability for census-related translation services. The department will also identify expanded translation services, ensuring they are available in all languages used within census self-reporting forms.
