New York Senate Bill S08015, introduced on May 15, 2025, aimed to adjust the maximum allowable annual fee for health clubs based on the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI).

The bill was referred to the Consumer Protection Committee on January 7, 2026, but was ultimately substituted by Assembly Bill A08638B on June 4, 2026.
