Agendas — New York State

Machine-readable feed: json_api — refreshed automatically each day. Note: VERIFIED (fetched 2026-06-15). source_url https://nyassembly.gov/leg/?sh=hear resolves and is confirmed as the combined "New York State Legislature Public Hearing Calendar" (lists both chambers' leadership; currently shows a Senate Labor Committee hearing, demonstrating it carries Senate hearings too). At fetch time it listed exactly one item: Senate Standing Committee on Labor (Chair Sen. Jessica Ramos), "The current state of Workers' Compensation and opportunities for improvement and modernization," Van Buren Hearing Room A, LOB 2nd Fl, Albany, scheduled 2026-05-20 10:00 AM but marked POSTPONED. That date is now in the PAST relative to today and the hearing was postponed, so it is intentionally EXCLUDED from the upcoming list. The Senate-side mirror https://www.nysenate.gov/issues/public-hearings resolved and explicitly states "There are no upcoming meetings or public hearings scheduled at this time." MACHINE-READABLE FEED: NY Senate Open Legislation API, base https://legislation.nysenate.gov/api/3/ — REST/JSON, near-real-time, covers BOTH Senate and Assembly. Relevant endpoints: /agendas/{year} (committee agendas), /calendars/{year} (floor/active-list calendars), /committees, hearing-transcript endpoints. CONFIRMED it requires a free API key: an unkeyed call to /api/3/agendas/2026 returned HTTP 401 Unauthorized, matching the documented '?key=' requirement (docs: https://legislation.nysenate.gov/static/docs/html/index.html). Sign up free at https://legislation.nysenate.gov/. feed_type=json_api is honest — there is NO native iCal/RSS for hearings (the nysenate.gov/events calendar only offers 'Add all Session dates' to Outlook/Google/Apple — session dates, not hearings). Recommended daily-check: poll Open Legislation /agendas + /calendars JSON with an API key, and/or scrape https://nyassembly.gov/leg/?sh=hear as HTML fallback. UPCOMING list now contains only the two items independently confirmed on https://www.nysenate.gov/events at fetch time, both dated 2026-06-15: (1) NYLAG Legal Assistance, by appointment, Sen. Addabbo's Middle Village office, 10:00 AM–3:00 PM; (2) District 34 Bronx Town Hall, Sen. Fernandez, Huntington Free Library, Bronx, 6:00–7:30 PM. NOTE: these are constituent/district events, NOT formal legislative-body agenda hearings — included for transparency but they are a different concept from committee/floor agendas. At fetch time no future formal committee or floor hearing was posted (NY is past the Jan–Feb budget-hearing season). The truest 'agenda/hearing' example seen was the (now past, postponed) Senate Labor hearing. The Senate floor Calendar/Agenda (active-list, session days) is a separate concept best pulled from the Open Legislation API, not the public-hearing page.
