The state office responsible for putting together New York legislation was hit with a cyberattack late Tuesday — throwing a wrench into the budget process, The Post has learned.

Capitol officials confirmed that the Legislative Bill Drafting Commission — responsible for drafting and publishing the bills that will make up the fiscal year 2025 spending plan — remained crippled by the hack on Wednesday morning.

Have done bookkeeping for over 66 years.

Can still do books, including budgets with CALCULATOR/paper/pencils/erasers.

Did a budget for a race team once-—5 crew members-—9 months of traveling criss-crossing the country-—gas—food—motels—etc. Took me about 20 hours. Car driver was STUNNED-— but they had all they needed to seek out a sponsor.

Can still do books & financials on paper.

will the hackers be charged with “obstructing an official proceeding” like Jan 6’th protestors were in order to elevate the charges?

This is pretty funny, because the New York Cybersecurity regulations they are foisting on companies across the country, apparently don’t apply to them.

yep. especially in that they are trying to jam in “Good Cause” which is basically an elimination of private property rights.
