State and local lawmakers join growing chorus demanding Gov. Cuomo's resignation

The governor was found by the state AG to have sexually harassed multiple women.

A growing number of New York lawmakers are calling for Gov. Andrew Cuomo to resign after the state's attorney general said he was found to have sexually harassed multiple women. New York's Attorney General Letitia James on Tuesday announced the results of her office's four-month probe into the allegations, saying current and former state employees were among the women Cuomo sexually harassed. In at least one instance, the governor is accused of seeking to retaliate against a woman who leveled accusations against him. Cuomo has previously denied the sexual misconduct allegations, saying in March that he would not resign despite mounting calls and new accusations. He bashed politicians who were already calling for him to leave office at the time, accusing them of bowing to "cancel culture." In the wake of James' investigation, a slew of state and local lawmakers on both sides of the aisle in New York are renewing their calls for the governor to step down.
