and their regular session is January - June but they indicate that it "could change" - https://nyassembly.gov/leg/calendar/

MEANING they could maybe call a special session now (if that is permitted) as an extension of their 2025 schedule (and as a note - PA has been doing that right now to try to deal with the Philly metro area transit mess), then they could pass something NOW at that session and have it counted for the 2025 FY, and then come January for their 2026 session, pass it again as their 2nd (consecutive) affirmation of it, and prepare for the 2026 election.
