New York - More extensive filings from New York state
legislators than ever before have been publicly posted online and show powerful
Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver earned $350,000 to $450,000 last year from his
private law practice.
Silver, the longtime leader of the Assembly’s Democratic
majority, is listed as “of counsel” to the Weitz & Luxenberg law firm in
Manhattan.
The disclosures filed by all 63 sitting state Senators and
148 members of the Assembly for the first time show publicly the value of their
outside financial interests.
Forms filed by other state officials in policy positions are
available by request from the Joint Commission on Public Ethics under a law
passed two years ago.
