New York State Team
ALBANY – In 2011, newly-elected Gov. Andrew Cuomo recognized the need to work collegially with the state Legislature after his predecessor Eliot Spitzer burned up his relationship with lawmakers within his first year. While I went to the people for support, my message did not demonize or alienate the legislators, Cuomo wrote in his 2014 book All Things Possible: Setbacks and Success in Politics and Life. I wanted them with me and believed I could get them.
Now, more than 10 years into his tenure, Cuomo s relationship with the co-equal Legislature is in tatters, the culmination of years of battles with lawmakers that leaves him with little goodwill at the most vulnerable moment of his career.
