The 202nd New York State Legislature, consisting of the New York State Senate and the New York State Assembly, met from January 4, 2017, to December 31, 2018, during the seventh and eighth years of Andrew Cuomo's governorship, in Albany

State Senate

At the beginning of this Legislature, the Senate had 31 Republicans and 32 Democrats. Dem. Simcha Felder caucused with Republicans. Unsatisfied with their own party's leadership, eight Democrats had formed previously the Independent Democratic Conference which cooperated with the Republicans. In April 2018, the IDC was dissolved and the dissenters returned to the Democratic conference. Subsequently, Rep. Thomas Croci abandoned his seat without resigning, which left the Senate de facto tied.

Senators

The asterisk (*) denotes members of the previous Legislature who continued in office as members of this Legislature. Jim Tedisco changed from the Assembly to the Senate at the beginning of this Legislature. Assembly members Brian P. Kavanagh, Luis R. Sepúlveda and Shelley Mayer were elected to fill vacancies in the Senate.
