NY Dem says cuomo nursing home scandal is impeachable offense, as governor blames Trump for vaccine woes

 

NYC mayor says 'I do not accept [cuomo's] explanation' for nursing home scandal

 

New York State Assemblyman Ron Kim - who said Gov. Andrew cuomo threatened to ruin his career for speaking out against his mishandling of the nursing home crisis during the coronavirus pandemic - is now calling for cuomo to face impeachment.

 

"cuomo abused his powers to hide life and death information from the Department of Justice that prevented lawmakers from legislating - like fully repealing corporate immunity for nursing homes. That is an impeachable offense," Kim wrote on Twitter on Monday.

 

"The only way to protect the integrity of the co-equal branch of the state government, AKA the 'People's House,' is to start impeachment," he wrote in another tweet.

 

The New York State Assembly can vote to impeach a governor by a simple majority, sending the case to the State Senate for trial. Unlike the U.S. Constitution, New York's state Constitution does not include specific guardrails to define impeachable conduct, according to PIX11.

 

Kim, a Democrat who is also the chair of the state's Standing Committee on Aging, previously accused cuomo of "abusing his power" by trying to pressure lawmakers into backing admissions by his top aide that the administration purposely withheld data on nursing home deaths from Justice Department investigators.
