BILL NUMBER:S2348
TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the executive law, in relation to
requiring the collection of certain demographic information by certain
state agencies, boards and commissions
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL: To keep a more accurate and relevant
public record of Asian-American populations in the State of New York.
SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: Every state agency, board: or
commission that directly collects data on ethnic origin for residents
of the state of New York would use separate categories for a number of
Asian groups included but not limited to Chinese, Japanese, Filipino,
Korean, Vietnamese, Cambodian, Indonesian, Pakistani, Sri Lankan and
Taiwanese.
JUSTIFICATION: While Asian Americans as well as Native Hawaiians and
other Pacific Islanders are often misrepresented as a homogeneous
group, they are an extremely diverse group, with ethnicities from over
30 different countries. Although Asian American as well as Native
Hawaiian and other Pacific Islander communities in this state share
geographical and cultural commonalities, they also experience diverse
social, educational, health, and economic differences that are unique
to their respective communities. Given the diversity of languages and
cultures, separating data for additional Asian and additional Native
Hawaiian and Pacific Islander ethnic groups and making the data

AN ACT to amend the executive law, in relation to requiring the
collection of certain demographic information by certain state agen-
cies, boards and commissions
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. Legislative intent. The legislature hereby finds and
declares the following:
(a) Asian Americans as well as Native Hawaiians and other Pacific
Islanders are an incredibly diverse group. Due to this diversity, the
United States Office of Management and Budget's Statistical Policy
Directive No. 15, entitled Race and Ethnic Standards for Federal Statis-
tics and Administrative Reporting, separated the "Asian and Pacific
Islander" category into two distinct and separate categories, now called
"Asians" and "Native Hawaiians and Other Pacific Islanders," and these
two distinct categories were used in the 2000 United States Census. The
United States Census Bureau currently reports data for more than 20
different ethnicities within these two categories.
(b) While Asian Americans as well as Native Hawaiians and other Pacif-
ic Islanders are often misrepresented as a homogeneous group, they are
an extremely diverse group, with ethnicities from over 30 different
countries. Although Asian American as well as Native Hawaiian and other
Pacific Islander communities in this state share geographical and
cultural commonalities, they also experience diverse social, educa-
tional, health, and economic differences that are unique to their
respective communities.
(c) Existing state law requires state demographic data to be collected
for Asian and some Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander ethnic groups.
However, additional ethnic groups reported by the United States Census
Bureau are not included that reflect changing demographics and intra-
