Provides for a preference for activated members of the New York army national guard or the New York air national guard for competitive examinations

Summary

The bill amends the state civil service law to give National Guard members who are activated for at least 60 days a 2½‑point boost on competitive exams for state jobs. It applies only when the activation is ordered under military law or during a declared state disaster emergency and does not stack with existing veteran credit. The change aims to recognize the service of Guard members during emergencies.
