Carey to sign liberalized hard drug laws overhaul
Albany lawmakers moved to soften Rockefeller era drug penalties for small quantity offenses. The bill would cut minimums from six years to one year and allow earlier release for about 4,000 inmates, while keeping strict terms for large-scale dealers and repeat offenders. The Senate passed 51 to 7, with Assembly fate uncertain. A separate bill targets mandatory student activity fees after a campus nude photo incident sparked protests.
