COVID-19 nursing home deaths

On March 25, 2020, the New York State Department of Health issued an advisory requiring the admission of patients to nursing homes who test positive for the coronavirus and barred testing prospective nursing home patients after the CDC announced that "patients with COVID-19 could be discharged from a health care facility to both home and long-term care facilities when indicated."[1] This was also in federal compliance with the HHS's announcement that "Nursing homes should admit any individuals that they would normally admit to their facility, including individuals from hospitals where a case of COVID-19 was/is present."[2] Due to widespread misinformation in the press, Cuomo and his health commissioner, Howard Zucker, were wrongfully accused of being the origin of mandating nursing homes to accept patients with COVID-19 who were discharged from hospitals.[3][4][5]

On May 10, Cuomo announced that New York would no longer require nursing homes to take COVID-19 patients from hospitals, stating that the change was not a policy reversal, but that hospitals would now be responsible for testing patients before they were released to nursing facilities.[6][7] By then, as many as 4,500 COVID-19 infected patients had been sent to nursing homes in NY state which was said to have contributed to over 6,000 New York state nursing home residents dying of COVID-19 as of June 2020.[3] However, in July 2020, the New York State Department of Health released a report that found: "Peak nursing home admissions occurred a week after peak nursing home mortality, therefore illustrating that nursing home admissions from hospitals were not a driver of nursing home infections or fatalities"; instead the department concluded that asymptomatic nursing home staff drove the infections.[8] Cuomo reacted to this report by stating that attribution of nursing home deaths to his March 2020 policy had "no basis in fact".[9]

On January 28, 2021, an investigation conducted by state attorney general Letitia James concluded that the Department of Health undercounted COVID-19-related deaths at nursing homes by as much as 50%.[10] James also reported that many nursing home residents died from COVID-19 in hospitals after being transferred from their nursing homes, which was not reflected in the DOH’s published total nursing home death data.[11]

On February 12, 2021, Melissa DeRosa, a top aide to Cuomo, said in a call with state Democratic leaders that the Cuomo administration intentionally delayed the release of data pertaining to deaths from COVID-19 within nursing homes in fear it would've triggered a potential federal investigation by the Department of Justice.[12][13] Calls to rescind Cuomo's emergency powers granted amidst the pandemic were launched within the New York State Senate immediately following this report, with 14 Democrats joining the Republican minority in the effort.[14]

On February 17, 2021, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the U.S. attorney in Brooklyn announced they were investigating the incident.

On November 22, 2021, the New York State Assembly released an Impeachment Investigation Report disclosing Cuomo .[15]

https://ag.ny.gov/press-release/2021/attorney-general-james-releases-report-nursing-homes-response-covid-19

Preliminary data obtained by OAG suggests that many nursing home residents died from COVID-19 in hospitals after being transferred from their nursing homes, which is not reflected in DOH’s published total nursing home death data. Preliminary data also reflects apparent underreporting to DOH by some nursing homes of resident deaths occurring in nursing homes. In fact, the OAG found that nursing home resident deaths appear to be undercounted by DOH by approximately 50 percent.

The current state reimbursement model for nursing homes gives a financial incentive to owners of for-profit nursing homes to transfer funds to related parties (ultimately increasing their own profit) instead of investing in higher levels of staffing and PPE;

Beginning in late 2020, Cuomo faced numerous allegations of sexual misconduct.[36][37] An investigation commissioned by New York attorney general Letitia James reported in August 2021 that Cuomo sexually harassed at least eleven women during his time in office,[38][39][40] for which Cuomo faced criminal investigations, yet she declined to file criminal charges against him.[41][42][43][44] Following the release of the attorney general's report, Cuomo was called to resign by President Joe Biden. On August 23, Cuomo resigned from office and was succeeded by his lieutenant governor, Kathy Hochul.[45][46][47][48] At the time of his resignation, he was the longest-serving governor in the United States. On December 28, 2021, the Westchester County district attorney declined to issue criminal charges from the credible allegations, citing "statutory requirements" of New York.[49][50] On January 7, 2022, an Albany judge dismissed a criminal complaint which had been filed against Cuomo.[51] The remaining two District Attorneys, who were investigating additional allegations in Oswego and Nassau, closed their own investigations, as well.[52][53]

Cuomo won the 2010 Democratic primary for governor of New York and won the general election with over 60 percent of the vote. He was re-elected in 2014 and 2018. During his governorship, Cuomo signed legislation to legalize same-sex marriage, medical use of cannabis, and recreational use of cannabis. Cuomo's administration oversaw the construction of the Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge, the Second Avenue Subway, the Moynihan Train Hall, and a reconstruction of LaGuardia Airport.[54] He also decommissioned the Indian Point nuclear plant, which led to an uptick in greenhouse gas emissions.[55] In response to the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting and the 2012 Webster shooting, Cuomo signed the NY SAFE Act of 2013, the strictest gun control law in the United States. He also delivered Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act; a 2011 tax code that raised taxes for the wealthy and lowered taxes for the middle class; 12-week paid family leave; and a gradual increase of the state's minimum wage to $15 per hour.[56] Cuomo received national attention for his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic in New York. Although he was initially lauded for his response, he faced renewed criticism and federal investigation after it was alleged that his administration covered up information pertaining to COVID-19 deaths among nursing home residents.[57][58] Investigations by both the Department of Justice and the Manhattan District Attorney's Office were officially closed as a result of no evidence of wrongdoing.[59][60]

In May 2019, Governor Cuomo announced he would run for a fourth term.[61] In August 2021, after a report released by the Attorney General of New York, Letitia James, detailed accusations of sexual harassment by Governor Cuomo and his attempts to silence victims, the New York State Legislature's leaders indicated that they would seek to remove Cuomo from office. Cuomo denounced the report's findings as political and maintained his innocence, however in the face of almost certain removal from office, he announced his resignation as Governor, effective August 24, 2021.[62] Although there was no formal withdrawal, individuals close to Cuomo indicated he would likely not seek his party's nomination following his resignation.[63]

Post-gubernatorial career (edited version)

Cuomo filed for a state retirement pension, to be effective September 1, 2021 based on 14.56 years of state service as attorney general and governor.[64] According to Politico, Cuomo used the weeks after his resignation to mount a revenge campaign against his successor Kathy Hochul and other perceived enemies, financing it with $18 million of leftover campaign donations.[65] I can remove this content as the article cited here says Politico Playbook has learned that RICH AZZOPARDI — Cuomo’s longtime spokesperson and senior adviser — is the former governor’s first big hire using the $18 million in leftover campaign cash the governor had amassed for his now-defunct reelection campaign — and which he now plans to use to mount a campaign of retribution against his perceived political enemies, including now-Gov. KATHY HOCHUL. remove

On March 3, 2022, during Cuomo's first public appearance since his resignation, he gave a speech at the God's Battalion of Prayer church in Brooklyn and came out against cancel culture and hinted at a political comeback. Cuomo said, "The press roasted me, my colleagues were ridiculed, my brother was fired. It was ugly. It was probably the toughest time of my life." In the speech before an ally's church, he said, "Contrary to what my political opponents would have you believe, nothing I did violated the law or the regulation."[66]

On March 14, 2022, at an event to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, Cuomo came out stating his plans to create an organization that will be called "Progressives for Israel". As part of his justification for this organization, he stated "You cannot denounce antisemitism but waver on Israel's right to exist and defend itself but it should be non-Jewish officials who speak first and loudest". Cuomo later declared "I am going to call the question for Democrats 'Do you stand with Israel or do you stand against Israel?'" This came amidst speculation that Cuomo intended to run in the 2024 United States Senate election in New York.[67]

In February 2023, Andrew Cuomo criticized President Biden over the problems stemming from the Mexican border and migrants being displaced within the United States.[68]

In June 2024, Cuomo said that the New York hush money case against former President Trump was only brought forward because of his name and White House bid. “If his name was not Donald Trump and if he wasn’t running for president … I’m the former AG of in New York, [and] I’m telling you that case would’ve never been brought,” he said.[69]

Official corruption (edited version)

  • Removed excessive language attempting to tie Andrew to Percoco's crimes by association

In July 2014, it was reported that the Moreland Commission, a committee established by Cuomo to root out corruption in politics,[70] was directed away from investigations that could be politically damaging.[71] Cuomo later disbanded the commission.[71] Federal prosecutors in Manhattan launched an inquiry into Cuomo's dealings with the anti-corruption panel and concluded that "after a thorough investigation", there was "insufficient evidence to prove a federal crime".[72]

In September 2016, Joseph Percoco, a close friend and former top aide to Cuomo, was indicted as part of a bribery investigation into the Buffalo Billion.[73][74][75] He had worked for Cuomo in both Washington and Albany and had managed his 2010 and 2014 gubernatorial campaigns.[76][77][78] Todd Howe, a lobbyist and former Cuomo aide, was also indicted, along with several developers who were major donors to Cuomo and other state politicians.[73][74] Cuomo was not accused of wrongdoing.[74][75]

In March 2018, a federal jury in Manhattan convicted Percoco on felony charges of solicitation of bribes and honest services fraud for over $315,000 in bribes he took from two people seeking official favors on behalf of an energy company, Competitive Power Ventures Inc. Prosecutors described him as Cuomo's "right-hand man".[79][80][81] Following Percoco's conviction, Cuomo released a statement declaring that he would respect the jury's verdict and that "there is no tolerance for any violation of the public trust".[82][83][84] In September 2018, Judge Valerie Caproni sentenced Percoco to 6 years in prison.[85] In May 2023, the US Supreme Court unanimously overturned Percoco's bribery conviction.[86]

In March 2021, allegations came out that Cuomo prioritized COVID-19 tests for his family and other associates during the early stages of the pandemic when tests were limited.[87] Particular scrutiny went to the positive test of his brother Chris in March 2020 amid other conflicts of interest that commentators saw in their relationship.[88][89] These reports were investigated during his impeachment probe but were not included in the final impeachment report.[90][91]

Sexual harassment allegations and resignation

Attorney General James's five-month investigation concluded with the release of a report on August 3, 2021.

Cuomo later filed a complaint with New York's Supreme Court stating that James had publicly called Cuomo a "serial sexual harasser" and "sick and pathetic," violating one of the ABA's responsibilities of a prosecutor stating that, "In the context of a criminal prosecution, a prosecutor's extrajudicial statement can create the additional problem of increasing public condemnation of the accused," Cuomo said.[95][96][97]

On October 28, 2021, a spokesman for the state court system announced that Cuomo would be charged with a misdemeanor sex crime in the Albany City Court related to Brittany Commisso's groping allegation.Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page).

On December 13, 2020, Lindsey Boylan, a former aide for Cuomo who was a Democratic candidate for Manhattan Borough president in 2021, alleged "[Cuomo] sexually harassed me for years. Many saw it, and watched." Boylan further alleged that Cuomo "exists without ethics", "takes advantage of people, including me" and ran a "toxic team environment".[117][118][119] A spokesperson for the Cuomo administration denied the accusation.[117] Boylan further elaborated on her accusations in February 2021, claiming Cuomo goaded her to play strip poker with him while on a flight in 2017 and forcibly kissed her on the mouth in his Manhattan office.[120] The governor's office said Boylan's claims were false.[121]

On February 27, 2021, Charlotte Bennett, an executive assistant and health policy advisor of Cuomo, also accused him of sexual harassment, saying that he asked her about her sex life on several occasions in late Spring 2020 and if she had been in sexual relationships with older men. She also suggested that Cuomo was open to relationships with women "above the age of 22".[122][123][124] In a statement on February 27, Cuomo denied making advances to Bennett and acting inappropriately towards her.[125][126]

In a February 28 statement, Cuomo said: "I now understand that my interactions may have been insensitive or too personal and that some of my comments, given my position, made others feel in ways I never intended." He apologized and acknowledged "some of the things I have said have been misinterpreted as an unwanted flirtation." He also said, "At work sometimes I think I am being playful and make jokes that I think are funny. I mean no offense and only attempt to add some levity and banter to what is a very serious business."[127]

The two U.S. senators for New York, Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, both Democrats, called for an independent investigation.[128] White House press secretary Jen Psaki said in a CNN interview that President Joe Biden supported an independent investigation into Governor Cuomo's conduct.[121]



On March 1, a third woman came forward alleging Cuomo had sexually harassed her and touched her without consent on her bare lower back while posing for a photograph.[129] Anna Ruch was not on the governor's staff, but encountered him socially at a wedding reception in September 2019. The attorney general of New York state, Letitia James, was reported to be investigating options for an independent investigation.[130] When reporting the allegation, The New York Times also published a photograph from the event which showed Cuomo putting his hands on Ruch's face. She said the incident made her feel "uncomfortable and embarrassed".[130]

A fourth woman, Ana Liss, came forward on March 6 and alleged Cuomo touched her inappropriately on her lower back and kissed her hand.[131] That same day, Karen Hinton, a former consultant of Cuomo when he was leading the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, alleged that in 2000 he had asked personal questions and inappropriately hugged her in his hotel room.[132]

On March 1, 2021, Cuomo's senior counsel and special adviser Beth Garvey instructed New York attorney general Letitia James to proceed with an independent investigation of Cuomo.[133] On March 8, James hired attorneys from two law firms (firstly Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton, and secondly Vladeck, Raskin & Clark) to conduct an independent investigation of Cuomo.[134][38]

On March 9, a sixth woman alleged that Cuomo inappropriately touched her at the governor's mansion.[135] On April 7, the unnamed aide said that after she had been summoned to governor's mansion in November 2020, Cuomo allegedly rose from his desk and began groping her. After the aide told him it would get him in trouble, Cuomo then shut the door and said "I don't care." He then returned and groped one of her breasts over her bra by reaching under her blouse. A month later she claimed that Cuomo told her to cover-up what had occurred.[136][137][138][139] On August 8, she revealed her identity: Brittany Commisso.[93]

On March 11, 2021, the New York Assembly approved a separate impeachment investigation into the sexual misconduct allegations made against Cuomo.[140][141]

On March 12, Kaitlin (last name unreported), who formerly worked for the governor's office, alleged that Cuomo had made her feel uncomfortable in various situations, with his comments, questions, requests, and invasions of her personal space. She did not allege inappropriate touching, explicit sexual propositions, or sexual harassment.[136][37][142] Also on March 12, journalist Jessica Bakeman alleged that Cuomo had sexually harassed her by touching her and making inappropriate comments. She wrote: "I never thought the governor wanted to have sex with me. It wasn't about sex. It was about power. He wanted me to know that I was powerless".[143][144]

On March 18, another journalist, Valerie Bauman, came forward. She said that Cuomo had made her feel uncomfortable, describing him staring at her, entering her personal space, offering her a job, and asking personal questions.[145][146] Bauman also stated that Cuomo "never touched [her] inappropriately or said anything that [she] felt [she] could report to [her] boss".[147] On March 19, Alyssa McGrath, who was still working for Cuomo's office at the time, accused Cuomo of sexually harassing her by ogling her and making inappropriate comments. McGrath did not accuse Cuomo of inappropriate sexual contact.[148] On March 29, Sherry Vill, a New York constituent whose flood-damaged house Cuomo had visited in May 2017, alleged that Cuomo had inappropriately kissed her twice on her cheek during that visit.[149][150][151]

Attorney General James's five-month investigation concluded with the release of a report on August 3, 2021.[38][152] This report concluded that during Cuomo's time in office, he sexually harassed 11 women: Boylan, Bennett, Ruch, Liss, Brittany Commisso, Kaitlin, McGrath, event attendee Virginia Limmiatis, an unnamed New York State trooper and two unnamed state entity employees.[39][93] The investigation concluded that Cuomo's behaviour included unwanted groping, kissing and sexual comments, and also found that Cuomo's office had engaged in illegal retaliation against Boylan for her allegation against him.[40][153]

Cuomo responded to the report with a denial: "I never touched anyone inappropriately."[40] The report generated public condemnation against the governor and heightened calls for him to resign.[154] On August 3, President Joe Biden called upon Cuomo to resign.[155] The release also prompted district attorneys for Manhattan, Nassau County, Westchester County, Albany County and Oswego County to pursue criminal investigations regarding his behavior.[42][43][44]

On August 10, 2021, despite denying all allegations sexual harassment, Cuomo announced he would step down as Governor of New York, effective August 24.[156][157][48][158] On August 21, Cuomo said that Hurricane Henri would not affect his resignation.[159]

Commisso filed the lawsuit on the last day of the time limit to sue, with the window expiring at midnight on the 24th. The lawsuit alleges a number of inappropriate interactions and actions by Cuomo, and that Commisso hadn't come forward in fear of retaliation; which the suit claims did happen and that then-Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul demoted her to menial tasks in lower offices. Cuomo's attorney responded claiming that Commisso's claims were false and an attempt at a "cash grab".[165]


Beginning in late 2020, Cuomo faced numerous allegations of sexual misconduct.[166][37] An investigation commissioned by New York attorney general Letitia James reported in August 2021 that Cuomo sexually harassed at least eleven women during his time in office,[38][39][40] for which Cuomo faced criminal investigations, yet she declined to file criminal charges against him.[167][42][43][44] Following the release of the attorney general's report, Cuomo was called to resign by President Joe Biden. On August 23, Cuomo resigned from office and was succeeded by his lieutenant governor, Kathy Hochul.[45][168][169][48] At the time of his resignation, he was the longest-serving governor in the United States. On December 28, 2021, the Westchester County district attorney declined to issue criminal charges from the credible allegations, citing "statutory requirements" of New York.[170][171] On January 7, 2022, an Albany judge dismissed a criminal complaint which had been filed against Cuomo.[172] The remaining two District Attorneys, who were investigating additional allegations in Oswego and Nassau, closed their own investigations, as well.[173][174]

New York City Subway

Cuomo speaking at the inaugural ride of the Second Avenue Subway on December 31, 2016

In 2014, Cuomo announced his support for four new Metro North stations in the the Bronx to address the lack of subway service. Officials said the four stations, Hunts Point, Parkchester, Morris Park, and Co-Op City would be built along an underutilized rail line in the East Bronx "Transit Desert".[175]

Need to fill in the blanks in chronology between 2014 and 2017[176]

In June 2017, after a series of subway disasters, Cuomo declared a "state of emergency" for the New York City Subway system.[177] According to The New York Times, a series of New York City mayors and New York governors, including Cuomo, were partly at fault for the worsening quality of the subway system and inflated construction costs.[177] Under the Cuomo administration, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority repeatedly diverted tax revenues earmarked for the subways, paid for services that there was no need for and spent on subway projects that did not boost service or reliability.[177] As a result, the MTA was saddled with debt and could not undertake investments into overhauling outdated and inefficient subway infrastructure.[177] Cuomo also directed the MTA to spend on projects that the heads of the MTA did not consider to be priorities.[177] One reason why the New York City subway system is so expensive is due to exorbitant labor costs; according to several M.T.A. officials who were involved in negotiating labor contracts, Cuomo pressured the MTA to accept labor union contracts that were extremely favorable to workers.[177] The New York Times noted that Cuomo was closely aligned with the union in question and had received $165,000 in campaign contributions from it.[177]

The New York Times reported, "Cuomo had steered clear of the M.T.A. during his first years in office, but in his second term he took an intense interest. He placed aides within the organization and, in an unusual move, made some report directly to him. He badgered transit leaders about the construction of the Second Avenue subway on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. And over the objections of some board members, he canceled several M.T.A. capital projects to make room for his own priorities. According to high-ranking current and former M.T.A. officials, the moves interfered with the authority's plans to address the rising delays."[177]

Governor of New York (2011–2021)

Cuomo took the gubernatorial oath of office at 12:01 a.m. on January 1, 2011, succeeding David Paterson.[178][179] During his first year as governor, Cuomo worked to pass an on-time budget[180] that cut spending without raising taxes,[181][182] made a new deal with a large state-employee union,[183] signed ethics reform legislation,[184] passed a property tax cap,[185] worked to enact a same-sex marriage bill with bipartisan support,[186][187] and restructured New York's tax code.[188][189]

In 2014, Politico reported that Cuomo had been actively involved in the formation of the Independent Democratic Conference (IDC) three years earlier, which gave control of the state senate to Republicans.[190] He has been accused of failing to bridge the rift between the IDC and the Democratic caucus in the Senate.[191]

There was media speculation about a possible presidential run, either in 2016 or 2020.[192][193] Several reports indicated that Cuomo supported the Independent Democratic Conference until its dissolution and defeat in 2018 in part to appear more moderate for an eventual presidential bid.[194][195][196][197]
