i ve already spoken with senate majority leader cousins, speaker carl hastie, labor, business, faith leaders, other state elected officials as well as our tri-state governors. i look forward to working with each and every one of them and all of you to build on the progress that we ve already started. over the next two weeks, i will continue meetings with current and potential cabinet officials. i ll build out my senior staff. and i ll do what i ve always done. i will travel the state to meet new yorkers, to listen to them, to assure them that i ve got their backs. and i will take their concerns and bring them back to our state capitol and work with our partners at every level of government to come to solutions. people will soon learn that my style is to listen first, then
not come close at the moment to the criminal investigation much less a prosecution. so to the extent andrew cuomo is claiming it is political. he made his bed himself, but it is political. sandra: charlotte bennett, one of the victims 25 years old, worked for him last year, we have the fact she just weeded out. this is the first i ve seen of her reaction. we have the facts he broke the law when he sexually harassed me and other current and former staff. i do not want an apology. i want accountability and an end to victim blaming. new york state assembly speaker carl hastie it s time you do the right thing, impeach him. i think a lot of the victims will feel that way, sandra, because it is one thing when somebody has been convicted or found liable, then you feel like
