There is no hope.

State still a failure to you -- Page 1 -- Times Union - Albany NY:


"New York's Legislature is still broken, according to NYU law school's Brennan Center for Justice, which four years ago placed it among the nation's most dysfunctional.


Thanks to the iron grip that Senate and Assembly leaders have on legislation, New Yorkers may be paying more for their auto insurance while coping with one of the nation's most outmoded balloting systems.

Additionally, New Yorkers can learn little about laws being formed, since there is hardly any open debate. And lawmakers can continue to 'vote' on bills without actually showing up."
