Top Lawmakers Say Cuomo Should Resign, Governor Says ‘No Way’ Bloomberg 3/7/2021 Stacie Sherman
(Bloomberg) New York’s highest-ranking state lawmakers called on Governor Andrew Cuomo to resign on Sunday even as he remained defiant that he wouldn’t step down.
“I am not going to resign because of allegations,” Cuomo said Sunday on a call with reporters. “There is no way I resign.”
Cuomo, a third-term Democrat, faces claims of impropriety from five women, after disclosures from two more aides were reported over the weekend by the Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal. The governor said he’ll let state Attorney General Letitia James complete her sexual-harassment investigation and urged others to wait before passing judgment.

March is National Kidney Month and April is National Donate Life Month. As leading, independent, national organizations representing patients, organ donors and their families, transplant surgeons, and transplant health professionals, the American Association of Kidney Patients (AAKP), the American Society of Transplant Surgeons (ASTS), the American Society of Transplantation (AST) restate our commitment to increased altruistic living organ donation through greater legal protections for a person who becomes a living organ donor. It is unacceptable that Americans with kidney failure are forced to wait on a transplant list, or die awaiting a transplant, when Congress could enact comprehensive policy solutions to remove roadblocks to living organ donation, increase available organs and save more lives.
