Prime-sponsored Assembly Bill 9501, which was signed into law on June 5, 2026 as Chapter 128. The law tightens New York's shield law, which protects health care that is legal in New York from out-of-state legal attacks. It stops professional liability insurers from dropping coverage or raising rates only because a doctor legally prescribes gender-affirming drugs. It also sets rules for out-of-state warrants that seek electronic records tied to that protected care. The Assembly passed the identical Senate bill, S.8807, in place of A.9501.
