UPDATE: It appears the New York State Department of Health has *already* approved these regulations—even though public comments are still being accepted through 2/14/22. This is believed to be an illegal and unconstitutional act committed on behalf of unelected Governor Kathy Hochul, and I fervently hope justice will be served and the regulations overturned.

NYU professor Mark Crispin Miller—whose Substack (https://markcrispinmiller.substack.com/) and listserv mailing list (https://markcrispinmiller.com/) I recommend signing up for—was kind enough to inform me of the following:

“That is excellent, but too late. The rubber has been stamped. I have contacted every Republican in the NYS legislature and demanded that Hochul be impeached for violation of her oath of office. Regulations can only be issued to amend bills passed by the legislature. What she has done is illegal and unconstitutional. The pressure now has to be on all NYS legislators.

I’ve been up for over 23 hours so am crashing now but wanted to get this message out ASAP. Please do continue to submit your public comments (https://regs.health.ny.gov/regulations/proposed-rule-making) and feel free to voice your concerns that these regulations have been rubber-stamped before the public comment period was even closed.

Mark will be sending me a list of New York legislators to contact about taking action on these serious matters.
