Why Isn't the Text of the SSM Bill Public?

 

New York law states that, unless it's an emergency, the text of any bill should be provided 72 hours in advance of the vote, to allow the language to be reviewed by the public.

NY Sen Greg Ball (who is voting NO, by the way) has said "the final text is public" ... but the text of the SSM bill is NOT available.

Why not? Isn't the public entitled to know?
