Stefanik in Newsweek: Hold Cuomo Accountable for COVID Scandals

We want to make sure you saw this op-ed by House GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik in Newsweek regarding Andrew Cuomo’s latest scandal as he attempts his political comeback:

Hold Andrew Cuomo Accountable for COVID Scandals

In typical fashion for the disgraced Andrew Cuomo, the desperate former governor and his unemployed henchmen are doing a full PR campaign ahead of his testimony today in front of the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic to try to rewrite history and avoid culpability.

What a slap in the face to all straight-talking New Yorkers, who see right through this slick attempt at a cover-up.

Newly released bombshell reporting reveals that Governor Cuomo and his most senior aides ordered, directed, and executed the fatal nursing home executive order that killed more than 15,000 seniors. The disgraced former governor and his circle of sycophants were caught covering up their culpability to try to selfishly save their deservedly ruined reputations. There is no question that Andrew Cuomo is responsible for the deaths of innocent nursing home seniors. He must be held accountable.

As a representative of the hardworking families of New York, and the most senior congressional Republican from New York in over 100 years, I have been deeply committed to transparency and accountability on behalf of New Yorkers who lost their loved ones in nursing homes. One of the most important tasks we have undertaken as House Republicans in the Majority is investigating Cuomo’s handling of COVID-19, nursing home scandal, and corrupt book deal. This investigation is critical for delivering justice to heartbroken families, many of whom I remain directly in touch with, and ensuring such a tragedy is never repeated. House Republicans ran on and promised accountability during the 2022 elections, earned victory at the ballot box here in New York, and are now fulfilling that promise through our actions and dedication to uncovering the truth.
