Welcome to the Empire Space Legislative Page, your hub at the intersection of space and government in New York. Here we cross-reference our datasets with the legislative districts for the New York State Assembly & Senate, allowing users and legislators alike to explore the specific institutions, facilities, and organizations that make up the space ecosystem in their districts. We at Empire Space believe information is key, and that an informed and interested Legislature is likely a prerequisite for a vibrant and expanding New York space ecosystem capable of undertaking significant, long-term projects.
This is not an endorsement of any legislation, or any specific party or politician. Empire Space believes that anyone and everyone involved in government and the legislative process benefits from greater information about the New York space ecosystem and its potential to bring jobs, opportunity, and resources to the state.
We hope you find this information useful and thought-provoking. Whether you are a legislator, a staffer, a stakeholder, or a citizen, we all have a role in making New York a leader in the New Space Age.
