MYCHAJLIW STATEMENT ON GOVERNOR CUOMO AND LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR HOCHUL

“I’m a husband and father of a teen daughter. Governor Cuomo’s behavior towards women in the workplace is despicable and unacceptable. According to the State Attorney General his actions are criminal in nature. Working women deserve better. Wives and mothers that worked for the Governor were treated like his personal prey. No woman, whether it is my wife, daughter, or anyone, should be humiliated, harassed and attacked in the office, the same manner in which Governor Cuomo apparently did.”

“I question why Lieutenant Governor Kathy Hochul has remained silent since the bombshell announcement from the State Attorney General. If Governor Cuomo refuses to resign and remains in office, Kathy Hochul has no other choice but to stand up for women and resign herself. It is unconscionable that Hochul would continue to work for a predator that broke the law and abuses women, according to Letitia James. If Governor Cuomo does not do the right thing and step down himself, then Kathy Hochul supports his abhorrent behavior if she remains working for him.”
