New York Republicans face lack of Democratic support for Cuomo impeachment

Published March 10, 2021 12:00am ET



New York Republicans on Tuesday introduced a resolution to impeach Gov. Andrew Cuomo, but without Democratic support, it’s unlikely to succeed.

Of the 150 members in the state Assembly, only 40 have expressed support for impeachment, and 32 of them are Republicans, who are in the minority. Three Democratic state senators have also backed impeachment. Two of them, Jabari Brisport and Julia Salazar, identify with the state Democratic Party’s insurgent left wing.
