A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to unlawful discriminatory practices
Be it enacted by the Council as follows:
Section 1. Legislative declaration. The council reaffirms its finding and declaration articulated in the law establishing the city commission on human rights that in the city of New York, with its great cosmopolitan population consisting of large numbers of people of diverse backgrounds, beliefs, and ways of life, there is no greater danger to the well-being of the city and its inhabitants than the existence of groups prejudiced against one another and antagonistic to each other. It further reiterates the prejudice, intolerance, bigotry, and discrimination occasioned thereby threatens the rights and proper privileges of the city's inhabitants and menace the institutions and foundations of a free democratic state.
The council notes that, throughout the history of the city, many New Yorkers have encountered prejudice on account of their sexual orientation. In some instances, the prejudice has impaired access to employment, housing, and other basic necessities of life leading to depravation and suffering. In addition, it has fostered a general climate of hostility and distrust, even to the point of physical violence against those perceived to be homosexual.
The council hereby finds and declares that discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation exists, that it unjustly threatens the well-being of thousands of New Yorkers, and that it should be prohibited in regard to employment, housing, land, commercial space and public accommodations.
In doing so, the Council wishes to make clear that it is not the function of the civil rights statute to promote a particular group or community; its purpose is rather to ensure that individuals who live in our society will have the opportunity to pursue their own beliefs and conduct their lives as they see fit within the limits of the law.

A Local Law to amend the New York city charter and the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to the department of ports, international trade and commerce
Be it enacted by the Council as follows:
Section 1. Legislative intent. It is the intent of the council to establish the department of ports, international trade and commerce which will foster expansion of the international business community of the city of New York and promote high quality and cost-competitive air, marine, rail and truck freight services for the city. It is the expectation of the council that the department will enable the city to attract more effectively foreign investment and trade, to assist firms in the city to win and fulfill foreign contracts, and to allow businesses in the city to transport goods more efficiently. In this manner, the department will promote economic development and employment in the city.

A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York in relation to requiring all hospitals and medical centers in the City of New York to provide for the use of interpretation services in emergency rooms
Be it enacted by the Council as follows:
Section one. Legislative Findings: The City Council hereby finds that New York is a multilingual city, where over two million three hundred and forty thousand residents speak a language other than English at home, and over half a million residents speak little or no English at all; that the public health and safety is threatened by language barriers which exist between health providers and residents who receive health services; that difficulties in communication delay services, cause misunderstandings and thereby endanger the health of non-English speaking residents; that the difficulties in communication could be greatly alleviated by the provision of interpretation services for non-English speaking City residents; and that it would be in the public interest to have interpreter services immediately available in the emergency rooms and medical centers in New York City.
