Gov. Kathy Hochul signs bill replacing ‘alien’ with ‘noncitizen’ in NYS law
New York Post ^ | 12/13/2022 | Zach Williams

Gov. Kathy Hochul has signed legislation into law that replaces the word “alien” in state statutes with the politically correct term “noncitizen,” which was proposed by Democratic lawmakers.

“New York will both match the language anticipated to be in federal codes and demonstrate respect and humanity to its immigrant population,” reads a legislative memo attached to the bill.

Legislative language states that changes to laws covering cannabis, parks, public health, labor, public authorities, real estate, economic development and a litany of other topics will take effect immediately.

This includes nixing “illegal alien” in favor of “undocumented noncitizen.”

The legislation, sponsored by Assemblywoman Maritza Davila (D-Brooklyn) and state Sen. Jessica Ramos (D-Queens) passed both chambers by big bipartisan margins last spring.

redefining words via government edict = newspeak

This has been on my radar for decades. I’ve always thought it was funny that “people of color” is good, but “colored people” is bad.

I recently made a joke on a hi-fi site talking about the new craze in colored vinyl records. I ended a sentence with “...colored records - I mean, records of color”. It was considered hate speech on the site. 🤣🤣🤣

Surrounded by eejits. 😋

Wait, does this make Hillary a non-citizen? Has this been approved by the Lizards and the Grays?

I was expecting them to change it to “wetback”.

Possibly related since there are local news reports that at least sone of the workers on that bus didn’t speak English...

See the NTSB and NYSP are now involved. The story should finish disappearing down a memory hole shortly.
