NYS Legislature's State of the State Speech is Scheduled for Wednesday, January 6, 2021; where the Governor will provide his vision on important aspects of NYS. Has NYS included Women's Equality Corrective Earnings Issuance for the Women that will proclaim that Women's Equality is a must in State Code this year? Does anyone got the Legislative Bill Number yet? Why are Legislators sitting back on ensuring that New York State finally offer Women-Earnings Equality.

Maryann Maltese, a Political Scientist with Practical Experience within NYS Legislature in both the State Senate and State Assembly; as a Communications Manager of Downstate Regional Operations and a Chief of Staff for Multiple Members of the Legislature simultaneously is strong advocate for Women's Earnings Rights in NYS. Maryann is also Pro-Choice Candidate-not a popular view point in the heart of the confines of the 12th NYS Assembly District-which takes in North Babylon, Deer Park, Centerport, East Northport, Northport, West Islip, Dix Hills, Commack, Brentwood, Halesite, and Asharoken. For over 50 years; Male Statewide Candidates who have run for offices in the 12th Assembly District, and Senate Seat 2nd have systematically voted against Women's Rights which again-is inclusive of Women's Equality of Earnings. By Male Legislators voting against Pro-Choice-they are the Legislators supporting that Women earn less on every dollar per hour they receive. The Public Service hourly rate that Women are still earnings; is between $0.69-$0.71 per hour less than men and Women in the Private Sector are earnings between $0.79-$0.81 per hour less than men for duties and roles where Men are receiving Employment Contracts at $1.00 more per hours.

Women are working 2x hard for less still in 2021-that's unacceptable Employment Practices for Women who decide to remain Full-Time in the Employment Sector-once any staff member determines to reduced themselves at Part-time hours or less; Equality of Earnings is not the ordinance to base a claim against if the Employer is or has done something that violates the law.

In the Private Sector of Employment if there is a violation that HRA department's can not or will not navigate; then you proceed with Court Case and hope that Judicial renders in your favor. If the result of your Employment Earnings Equality Case renders in your Favor-fantastic-but; that decision is not State Statutory Law and no other Women with a similar employment issue can use the rendering with an Agency on Employment Law.

In the Public Sector of Employment; if there is a violation or a need for change-the HRA Departments of Civil Service are not in position to assist with Corrective Earnings REQUIREMENTS-only New Legislation with Corrective Earnings Totals stated can change the problem-bringing the matter into Compliance.

The Maryann Maltese Earnings Equality Law which MUST be introduced because the NYS Legislature is Maryann Maltese's Employer-because the State Legislature RECOGNIZED their Hand in Fault of Underpaying Undermining Several Women with their Employment Contracts-Legislative Corrective Language to add in the Earnings that should have been issued to a Female Employee is required. The Legislature as the Employer "does not" have authorization to table an Employment Claim of one of their Own at any point. Moratorium Rules are not applicable to Employment Claims and I have issued full notice to the NYS Legislature (Legislators) over 6 months ago to follow through on their Requirement.

In the Public Service Industry (Government) It is not Political Corruption to repair one's Employment Records within the Legislature when that Employee submits a request and evidence to do so. These Elected's that continue to portray it as such are in violation of Law. When an Employee is on leave (family or personal) and seeks reinstatement; either employment is reissued immediately or corrective earnings aspects to ensure an Employee's Files are correct.

By implementation of my request; the Maryann Maltese Equality of Earnings-I will receive Employment Justice including tort percentage for the State's hands in intentionally holding back from issuance of my rightful earnings. It has nothing to do with my own Political aspirations and because Suffolk County Supreme Court in Maryann Maltese v. Hon Andrew Cuomo and NYS Board of Elections; 2020-01568; did not grant me a hearing on Election Law matter-it does not grant The NYS Legislature permission as the Employer to "not introduce the legislation to correct my earnings-because of their negligence in issuance of discriminatory Employment Contracts", noted by the NYS Legislature 7 years ago. By NYS not following through on their Commitment to ensure that Women of the Legislature receive their Rightful Corrective Earnings-they silently prevented my income source to pay for Counsel for the Election Law proceeding.

The decision of Suffolk Supreme Court in:

Maltese-created sysmatic discrimination against a fellow State Legislative Officer of the Legislature from receiving virtual or in person Hearing. At the Appellate level in Maltese; the 2nd would not allow me as a "Poor Person" to use a Poor Person Judgement Order in an Election Law process solidifying that only the wealthy that can afford to pay for Court Time-is permitted to have their Election Law Complaint heard. It is the wrong message to send to those who are civilians or public servants who put themselves on the line to run for offices who may not have the financials or present wages to run for office. One who doesn't have the Financials doesn't mean they do not have the Know-how to be an Elected. My Court Challenge is different than President Trump's in its entirety.

In Maltese; my complaint asked the Court to consider that the EO language within Election Law procedures of extended time to party candidates was discriminatory towards me; reducing my time to petition-while providing extended time frames of elections. If you're the Petitioner-no matter What Political party you are running on-you Must Petition it is in the Federal and State Constutions that's how private non-political party candidates receive fellow voter support (verifying signatures) that the Delegate has asked you to support. Petitioning is the single most important process to ensure that "Democratic Process of Elections" is intact-or Party Chairman can and do not need a Quorum to add a name of a Candidate on the Ballot-hence this Election 2020 Keith Brown received the Independent Party Line without a Quorum Vote-I never received a return phone call from the Chairman of Suffolk County's Independence Party-that's a violation of Political Party Processes in NYS.

As far as President Trump's Court Challenges in various States; his complaints filed within the States is challenging the "voter's popular decision and electorate decisions". Every single state that Trump lost the popular vote and the electorate he is challenging as corruption. In 2016; similar aspects occurred in the Presidential Election of Hillary Clinton in various states where Ms. Clinton won by "popular vote" but lost the Electorate decisions. Ms. Clinton did not file court challenges in 2016 stating she did not trust the results of the popular vote-a completely different strategy than present day fillings of President Trump. In Federal Presidential Election races-the Federal Government Constitution requires certification of the popular vote by Members of the Electorate to solidify-it's an honorable function. In State Offices (Legislature -State Senate or State Assembly) No electorate is required to certify races. Again-emphasizing that Petitioning in Statewide or Local Races for non-political party or party candidates is the Primary Process of Statewide Elections and the process to ensure your candidate or a candidate get's their name on the Ballot.

Locally today what can we do to ensure that Women have Earnings Equality in NYS-the Budget discussion begin on January 6, 2021-email and call your New State Legislative Members; Keith Brown of 12th Assembly District, Mario Mattera-2nd Senate District, and James Gaughran-5th Senate District-and ask them-where do you stand on 2 most important aspects of Women's Equality; Pro-Choice Measures and Earnings Equality for Women in the Public and Private Sectors. Wrap it up-by leaving an email at the Governor's Office to ensure these Elected's get the word that Women of NYS will not tolerate unequal treatment in Employment Law of NYS.

Women's Equality must be in State Code in 2021.
