The bill, approved in the state Senate, has previously passed in the Assembly and now goes to Gov. Andrew Cuomo's desk for his approval. “Cyberbullying is a serious issue across our State — and we need a plan to stop it,” said Sen. Todd Kaminsky in a statement. “My bill will not only create a task force to study this menace to our teens, but will also help foster solutions to help end this crisis, which has plagued far too many individuals of all ages across Long Island and the State as a whole.”
