New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo Announces Resignation After Damning Harassment Report
HuffPost
The Democrat won praise for COVID-19 news conferences, but the uproar over the results of a sexual harassment investigation proved overwhelming.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) announced on Tuesday that he would resign, following calls for his departure after an investigation by the New York state attorney general found he’d sexually harassed multiple female employees, violating federal and state law. “New York tough means New York loving, and I love New York,” Cuomo said at an emotional news conference, where he said he will resign from his position in 14 days. “And I love you. And everything I have ever done has been motivated by that love. And I would never want to be unhelpful in any way. And I think that given the circumstances, the best way I can help now is if I step aside and let government get back to governing.” Nine women accused the governor of sexual harassment and inappropriate comments earlier this year, sparking an independent investigation in March. The resulting report, filed in August, painted a “deeply disturbing yet clear picture” of Cuomo’s behavior, New York state Attorney General Letitia James (D) said.
