What this bill would do

  • The core action is to repeal a provision in the State Finance Law that governs contracts between state agencies and not-for-profit organizations. The exact operative details of the repealed provision (and thus the precise substantive effects) are not included in the information provided here.
  • Because A 7616 has been substituted by S7001, the substantive provisions moving forward are reflected in the Senate companion bill S7001 rather than in A 7616 itself.

Key provisions (as available)

  • Repeal of a specified State Finance Law provision related to contracts with not-for-profit organizations.
  • The bill’s text and the specific regulatory or procedural changes would be carried in the substitute/S7001 bill.

Note: The exact mechanics, such as how contracts with nonprofits would be governed post-repeal (procurement rules, reporting requirements, oversight, thresholds, or eligibility criteria), depend on the text of the substitute/companion bill S7001.

Who would be affected

  • State agencies that enter into contracts with not-for-profit organizations.
  • Not-for-profit organizations that seek or hold contracts with state agencies.
  • Any state program or initiative relying on nonprofit contracting, along with related state budget and oversight processes.

Legislative history and current status

  • Introduced: April 1, 2025
  • Early actions: Referred to Governmental Operations (April 1, 2025); later referred to Ways and Means (May 27, 2025).
  • Subsequent actions: Referred to Rules; Rules Committee calendar actions; reported on June 16, 2025.
  • Current status: Substituted by S7001 on June 16, 2025, indicating that the substantive provisions are now carried in the Senate companion bill S7001. S7001 is listed as the companion bill.
  • Related bills: S 7001 (companion) – noted twice as a companion reference.

Procedural and timeline notes

  • The substitution suggests a cross-chamber consolidation of the bill’s content into S7001, which will be the primary vehicle moving forward.
  • For stakeholders seeking the final language and operative effects, focus on bill S7001 (the substitute/companion text) as the authoritative version.

Potential impact considerations

  • Repealing a State Finance Law provision governing contracts with nonprofits could simplify or restructure procurement and oversight, depending on what the repealed provision required.
  • Changes could affect bidding requirements, reporting, accountability, or eligibility criteria for nonprofit contractors.
  • The exact fiscal and administrative impact will depend on the final text in S7001.

For anyone needing precise legal effects, review the substituted text in Senate bill S7001 (the active vehicle carrying A 7616’s provisions) and any fiscal notes or sponsors’ memos accompanying S7001.
