Pressure Builds on Cuomo to Resign

There are now 59 Democratic lawmakers in New York calling for Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) to resign, in light of a sixth sexual harassment allegation against him, Axios reports.

The lawmakers say “he has lost the confidence of the public and the state legislature.”

NY1: “With 40 signatories in the Assembly, that number now surpasses a significant threshold. Assuming Cuomo refuses to resign, and these lawmakers are ready to take the next step with impeachment, they would now have more than the 76 votes needed to impeach.”
