N.Y. Senate Rules Rule 9, § 1: Bills on desks

Section 1. Bills on desks. No bill shall be passed unless it shall

have been printed and upon the desk of each Senator in its final form at

least three calendar legislative days prior to its final passage, unless

the Governor or acting Governor shall have certified, under his or her

hand and the seal of the State, the facts which in his or her opinion

necessitate an immediate vote thereon, in which case it must

nevertheless be upon the desks of all Senators in final form, not

necessarily printed, before its final passage. No bill shall be passed

pursuant to a message of necessity unless a majority of the Senators

vote to approve the use of such message.
