2:11Now PlayingAndrew Cuomo said he would resign as New York Governor and apologized to the 11 women that the attorney general said Cuomo sexually harassed. He called the report “false” but said his decision to leave was in the best interest of the people of New York.
He said he didn’t intentionally sexually harass anyone and accepts “full responsibility” if he offended anyone.
“The report said I sexually harassed 11 women. That was the headline people heard and saw and reacted to. The reaction was outrage -- it should have been -- however it was also false,” he said in his first public address since Attorney General Letitia James came out with her report last week.
Cuomo had released a taped statement after the report but has been holed up in the Executive Mansion in Albany and has resisted called to resign from President Joe Biden and dozens of members of state government. On Tuesday, Cuomo took a helicopter to Manhattan, according to television footage aired on NY1.
