ALBANY – With new questions emerging about the role that Governor Cuomo’s coronavirus book deal may have played in the administration’s nursing home data cover-up and remaining questions about the state’s mismanaged nursing home COVID response, Aging Committee Ranking Member Sue Serino and Committee Member George Borrello today advanced motions to launch bipartisan investigations into the issues.
