Provides for the establishment of a nexus with the state of New York relating to unlawful discriminatory practices

Summary

The bill amends the state's civil rights law so that discriminatory actions can be pursued even if they occurred outside New York, as long as they have a strong connection to the state. It defines what counts as a “sufficient nexus,” adds affirmative defenses, and takes effect immediately. This broadens protection for New Yorkers and for employment relationships tied to the state.
