Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is taking his biggest steps yet to return to public life, more than a year after resigning in the wake of a bevy of sexual harassment allegations
Cuomo said his time away from politics — which he said has included attempting to fix a Harley-Davidson motorcycle, among other activities — has changed his perspective, and he decried the deep partisanship affecting current political discourse.
Cuomo resigned in August 2021, during his third term, a week after New York's attorney general released a report that concluded he had sexually harassed at least 11 women. One of the women who accused Governor Cuomo of sexual harassment has now filed a federal lawsuit against him. Adam Kuperstein reports.
Also this month, a former aide sued Cuomo, claiming he sexually harassed her and then smeared her reputation after she publicly accused him of misconduct. Through his attorney, Cuomo denied harassing anyone.
