New York A09020 proposes an amendment to the state constitution to establish procedures for declaring the inabilities of the governor, lieutenant-governor, and acting governor. It creates a committee on gubernatorial inability, which includes the lieutenant-governor, the attorney general, the comptroller, and six heads of executive departments. If the governor declares an inability, the lieutenant-governor or the next in line assumes duties unless the committee disagrees. The committee can also declare the governor unable, and if there's a disagreement, the legislature decides.
