So, the #NYS Senate passed their budget bill. Assembly is still working on it.

In short, the #ebike provisions are still horrible. Here's a detailed rundown of the #ebikes situation. https://biketarrytown.org/new-york-state/ebikes-2020-governors-budget.php

Dear @andyjayhawk: Saw your article about NY "legalizing" ebikes. Please see above about how it the bill effectively bans use of ebikes outside of NYC.

Dear @cfisherwrites: Saw your article about "legalization" of ebikes in New York. Please see original post in thread above for how the bill will make using ebikes outside of NYC illegal.

@WeTheCommuters, @katehinds: please see above re New York's e-bike "legalization."

Dear @kdewitt7: In the event you're asked about ebike "legalization," see the tweet atop this thread, please.
