Waives New York state's sovereign immunity for violations of federal disability, labor, age discrimination, and family leave laws.
This bill amends the civil rights law to waive the state's sovereign immunity in state and federal courts for claims related to violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, and the Family and Medical Leave Act. It also waives the immunity of all instrumentalities and political subdivisions of the state. This means the state can be sued in court for these specific types of violations.
