List Of New York State Senators

This compendium, though ostensibly a complete roster, is, as explicitly noted, incomplete; one can always attempt to improve it by adding the missing fragments of history, a Sisyphean task if ever there was one. (Last updated, or perhaps merely glanced at, in June 2019.)

What follows is a comprehensive, if somewhat exhaustive, catalogue of individuals who have served as members of the New York State Senate, spanning from its inception to the present day. Those members who were actively serving in the Senate as of July 2022 are, for reasons of contemporary relevance, visually distinguished, though such fleeting distinctions rarely alter the fundamental nature of their contributions.
