Even though Republican lawmakers only hold one-third of the seats in the state Legislature, they’re hoping to oust Gov. Andrew Cuomo over withholding information regarding nursing home deaths.
On Thursday, the New York Post reported that Cuomo’s top aide Melissa DeRosa admitted to state legislators that the state had delayed revealing the total death count of nursing home residents from COVID-19. During a video conference with Democratic lawmakers, DeRosa confessed that “basically, we froze” over the summer after the state Senate called for a full tally of nursing home deaths, while the state was facing scrutiny from the Department of Justice.
