Enacts the "unique abilities employment act"

Summary

The bill adds a new civil service provision allowing New York school districts to set aside up to 1,700 positions for individuals with developmental disabilities. Those positions are classified as non‑competitive and can be filled only by people certified as having a developmental disability. Hired workers receive the same promotional exam rights as other state employees.
