House Republicans announced on Tuesday that former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo would testify before the Oversight Committee to address his state’s policy for requiring nursing homes to admit COVID-19-positive patients in the early months of the pandemic. 

“Andrew Cuomo owes answers to the 15,000 families who lost loved ones in New York’s nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic. On September 10, Americans will have the opportunity to hear directly from the former governor about New York’s potentially fatal nursing home policies,” said Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-OH), chairman of the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic.
