After Albany All-Nighter, Lawmakers Say: No More ALBANY - Three lawmakers have a plea for Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo and the leaders of the State Legislature: No more all-nighters. What they are tired of, they say, is the kind of caffeine- and pizza-fueled marathon seen at the Capitol this week, when the Legislature worked through Wednesday night into Thursday morning to pass a package of measures dealing with pension reductions, redistricting and casino gambling. Every vote happened under the cover of darkness - with the exception of the vote to approve pension changes in the Assembly, which finally adjourned at 7:26 a.m. as the rising sun began to flood the high-ceilinged chamber. "Sleep deprivation is something they use in warfare to confuse people to get them to do inappropriate things," said one of the lawmakers, James N. Tedisco, a Republican from Schenectady, who, like many at the Capitol, was still recovering on Friday from the toll of the all-night session. "When it's 3 or 4 or 5 o'clock in the morning, you want to get home and get to your family and go to sleep," Mr. Tedisco said. People lying on couches asleep - that's not the way to govern. So Mr. Tedisco and two fellow Republican assemblymen from the capital region, Steven F. McLaughlin and Tony Jordan, are drafting legislation to end the practice. Their measure would ban the Senate and Assembly from passing legislation between midnight and 8 a.m.; an exception would be made for emergencies. After the all-night session, Mr. Cuomo has faced grumbling from government watchdogs and some lawmakers for condoning - and, by some accounts, demanding - a rushed process. Mr. Jordan noted that the Legislature's all-nighter came during what is known as Sunshine Week, an annual initiative started by the American Society of Newspaper Editors to promote the principles of open government. But the governor has brushed off the complaints. "Government is about action," Mr. Cuomo said in a radio interview on Thursday. It's not a debating society. Spokesmen for the Senate majority leader, Dean G. Skelos, and the Assembly speaker, Sheldon Silver, declined to comment on Friday.
