Seattle WA

Description

Despite a seventh accuser coming forward NY Gov. Cuomo derided the mounting pressure from his own party as “cancel culture” and insisted he would not bow to it.What happened to “believe every woman”? #MeToo? Democrats in the New York State Assembly and the Legislature press Gov. Andrew Cuomo to resign following reports claiming the governor placed his hand under a young female employees’ blouse (reports that have been referred to the Albany Police, according to a statement from the department), some of the most visible members of the state’s Congressional delegation have finally broken their silence, and they’re pushing for Cuomo to resign. NYC Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez urged the governor to resign in a statement Friday morning. She was joined by Rep. Jamaal Bowman, another New York progressive who defeated establishment Dem Eliot Engel in a Democratic primary last year (in accordance with what’s become known as the AOC playbook). According to Axios, a flurry of House Dems from the Empire State followed suit within minutes. 11 of the 19 members of the US House from the State of New York have officially called on Cuomo to resign. Previously, Kathleen Rice, another House Dem from NY, was the only member of the state delegation to call on the governor to resign. But the list of those who have joined the growing chorus now includes the leaders of the Judiciary Committee (Nadler) and the powerful House Oversight Committee (Maloney).
