Cuomo Must Go: Sexual Harassment Report Prompts Demands for NY Governor to Resign or Face Impeachment

Pressure is growing on New York Governor Andrew Cuomo to resign after the state’s attorney general, Letitia James, released the damning findings of an independent investigation Tuesday about how Cuomo sexually harassed at least 11 women in violation of the law. "The report is devastating, and it is disturbing. And unfortunately, it’s not surprising to anyone who has spent time in Albany," says New York state Senator Julia Salazar.

"Democracy Now!" also speaks with Sochie Nnaemeka, state director of the New York Working Families Party, who says removing Cuomo must include a wider reckoning with how Albany operates. "We need to usher in a post-Cuomo moment," says Nnaemeka. "We need a full transformation of New York state."
