Cuomo Speaks Out Following Sexual Harassment Claims Says He Will Not Resign

NY Office Of The Governor

    

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is offering an apology while speaking out for the first time since sexual harassment allegations surfaced from two former staffers and another woman.  

The governor apologized over and over saying he never knew at the time he was making anyone feel uncomfortable.

“I certainly never ever meant to offend anyone or hurt anyone or cause anyone any pain.”

One former staffer alleges the governor kissed her on the lips.  Cuomo says he never touched anyone inappropriately.

“I ask the people of the state to wait for the facts from the attorney general’s report before forming an opinion.”

Cuomo says he will not resign following calls from both parties to do so.
