Kennedy calls on Cuomo to resign

State Senator says allegations are too great for governor to effectively serve

Sen. Tim Kennedy

Buffalo, NY (WBEN) Another local lawmaker is calling on Governor Cuomo to resign. State Senator Tim Kennedy is the latest to say it's time for Cuomo to step down.

In a statement, Kennedy says, ''The growing number of allegations of assault, harassment, and inappropriate behavior by the Governor are disturbing. I commend the women who have come forward for their courage. They deserve justice, which begins with a thorough investigation. I strongly support the ongoing investigation led by Attorney General James, the investigation led by the Assembly Judiciary Committee, and the inquiries by relevant District Attorney offices, however I personally believe these allegations have made it impossible for the Governor to effectively serve the people of New York, and I believe he should resign."


Senator Sean Ryan along with Assemblymembers Monica Wallace, Karen McMahon, Jon Rivera and Bill Conrad called on Cuomo to step aside during the investigation.

Earlier today, Congressman Brian Higgins urged the governor to step down as well.
