Topic: A proposed New York State law, the Tropical Deforestation-Free Procurement Act (S4859/A5682 Krueger/Zebrowski). The law would tighten an existing state ban on using tropical hardwoods for government projects and create a new statute requiring state contractors dealing in “forest-risk commodities” to certify that their products don’t drive deforestation in sensitive tropical regions. Key forest-risk commodities covered by the law include soy, cattle-derived products, palm oil, wood products, and others.
Addressee: Members of the New York State Legislature
