Bronx: In the wake of the e-bike battery fires, the New York City Council is considering a bill to designate emergency evacuation centers. While this is laudable, what is dismaying is the utter lack of any legislation in the city or the state getting to the root of the problem.
On March 23, 2023, the Florida Legislature passed HB 837, a bill enacting major reforms to Florida tort law. Gov. Ron DeSantis wasted no time, signing the bill into law shortly after.
