In June 2019, following the 2019 outbreak of measles in New York, a bill to eliminate religious and philosophical exemptions for vaccinations became deadlocked in the Assembly Health Committee, 13–13. Though he personally opposed the bill, Sayegh switched his vote to allow the bill to come to the Assembly floor, saying that “this is a crucial issue that deserves to be put before the entire Assembly to be debated and decided upon.” When the bill came up for a vote from the full Assembly, Sayegh voted against it; the bill passed, 84–61.
In October 2019, Sayegh introduced a bill to establish an option for a special driver’s license for people with autism, in order to prevent potentially dangerous misunderstandings during traffic stops or other interactions with law enforcement. Some advocates voiced concerns over the bill, given that some individuals on the autism spectrum may not want to reveal their status to employers. The bill was referred to the Transportation Committee and has yet to come up for a vote.
In 2019 and 2021, Sayegh co-sponsored legislation to make the National Day of the People’s Republic of China a public holiday in the State of New York.
