State Sen. LaValle Introduces Bill to Make Testing Fraud a Felony

(ALBANY, N.Y.) -- New York State Senator Kenneth P. LaValle of Port Jefferson introduced a bill on Tuesday which would impose tougher penalties for people who cheat on college entrance tests.

The new law would make facilitation of education testing fraud a felony which carries a prison sentence. The legislation is in answer to a widespread SAT cheating scandal in New York involving students from several high schools.
