So far there seems to be nothing from either the Democratic Party nor the Republican Party.
New York law has long permitted political parties to expel members believed not to be in sympathy with the party’s principles. But the law always required that action to be carried out by the party’s county committee. On December 19. 2025, New York Governor Kathy Hochul signed S7111. It allows the expulsions to be carried out even if the party doesn’t have a county committee.
The Working Families Party typically does not have county committees. The bill was introduced at the request of the WFP. The expulsion power makes it easier for a party to prevent having its primary invaded by candidates who are not loyal to the party’s ideas, and who are merely hoping to seize the party’s nomination for a public office for partisan reasons.
