HR218, retired and in NY???

[SS396]

Ok.... So HR218 was passed over a year ago and NY's retired guys still seem to be SOL.... Supposedly NYPD sent out a memo that the only entity that can qualify them under the rules is NYPD? As far as I'm getting Nassau and Suffolk counties aren't qualifying their retired guys either? Can anyone validate any of this? Isn't it supposed to be to state standards, of which NY doesn't have any...

HR218 & NY

Kelly wants to severely restrict any certification, discriminating against anyone with a disability retirement, for example. There are no plans as yet to have NYS standards so retired members can be in compliance. "Hurry up and wait" sound familiar?
