Bear Mountain Compact
The Bear Mountain Compact is an unofficial agreement among members of the New York State legislature in which they agree to keep whatever happens in the state capital in Albany, such as extramarital affairs and other embarrassing behavior, secret.〔(New York Times, May 16, 2004, "Albany Faces Its Sex Problem, and Nobody's Snickering )〕 "The Bear Mountain Compact" is similar to the Blue Code of Silence (also the Blue Wall of Silence), in which police officers never inform on one another, Omertà, the code of silence among Mafia organizations, and the expression "Whatever happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas."
==Origin==
In his article for ''New York'' magazine, Michael Tomasky traces the secrecy in Albany "back to the days (the 19th and early 20th centuries ) when the Democratic hotel was the De Witt Clinton, the Republican hotel was the Ten Eyck, and one didn't pry too deeply into who was sleeping where."〔(New York Magazine, June 30, 2003, "Capital Offense" )〕
