Senator Helming has issued a call to Governor Hochul to rescind an executive order that prohibits terminated state correction officers from obtaining state and local employment, including positions in law enforcement. This appeal is supported by the Senate Republican Conference.

The letter sent to the Governor seeks a reversal of the executive order, arguing for the rights of those affected correction officers. The correspondence emphasizes the importance of reconsidering the current restrictions placed on these individuals.

"Read the letter from Senator Helming and the Senate Republican Conference to Governor Hochul, calling on her to rescind her Executive Order banning terminated state correction officers from state and local employment, including law enforcement jobs."

"The letter to the Governor is attached above."
