Albany: Kathy Hochul became New York’s first female governor in the middle of Tuesday, took control of the desperate state government to return to business after months of disruption than complaints issued by its predecessor and sexually harassed female employees.
Hochul, a 62-year-old Democrat from Buffalo, is expected to give a speech and swear on Tuesday in Albany for a period of 16 months.
He has vowed to move the country past the “disruption” marked by the last months of the term of office Andrew Cuomo, who long opposed calling for his resignation from the majority of New York Democrats selected until the threat of impeachment became real.
Hochul, who said he did not know the alleged sexual abuse and did not cooperate with Cuomo, has promised he would never call his workplace “toxic.” Hochul has spent a meeting of the last two weeks with state officials and local prepares to lead a government that faces spicy criticism for attachment in the last months of the term Cuomo: from sending Covid-19 rental assistance too slowly, to mandate masks in school The school as a surge in inpatient covid-19, to slow down the legalization of marijuana recreational sales to adults.
Advocates and members of the left parliament want to expand New York’s eviction moratorium outside August 31.
Landlord groups said New York had to get money out of the door instead of loading tenants and landlords with more debt.
Last week, Hochul said the country could mandate the mask at school as he was the governor – contrast to Cuomo, who said he had no authority.
And he was called the legalization of the sale of “Long Overdue” and the late estimated $ 300 million in the end of annual income.
Cuomo, 63, delivered his resignation letter without fanfare Monday, and his future plan was unclear.
Hochul lost the election back to Congress in 2012 and ran in 2014 as a colleague for Cuomo, who had long been sent to win with the support of new New Yorkers and leaning.
Hochul said he would choose the Democrats of New York City as Lieutenant Governor, and plan to run the governor in 2022.
The Democratic Party Jay Jacobs praised the historical candidate “Tangguh”.
Hochul is also expected to detail how it will prevent conflict of interest from her husband’s work as a general advisor to North Delaware based in Buffalo since 2016.
The company operates New York Casinos, and state officials lobbying for the travel of cellular sports bets recently.
Delaware North also has a $ 49 million concession contract with the State Authority of Thruway and the State Park, and runs the concession at the HIGHMARK BUFFALO BILLS Stadium.
The bill that wants a taxpayer to help cover the new stadium of $ 1.4 billion.
North spokesman Delaware Glen White said the company was not involved in talks with state officials.
The supervisor group said Hochul’s husband had to retreat to prevent the perception of conflicts of interest.
White said Brian was “very careful not to have direct interactions” in New York important.
Hochul is the 57th Governor of the country.
He was also the second to take over for a governor who resigned in the midst of a scandal: David Paterson took over in 2008 for Eliot Spitzer, who resigned from a prostitution scandal.
Cuomo has tied his record about through the same sex marriage, family leave, weapons control, and minimum wages in the entire state.
But his political support collapsed after an independent investigation supervised by the Office of the Attorney General who found Cuomo sexually harassed at least 11 women, including the state police in his security details and an executive assistant who said he grabbed his official residence.
Hochul said he would sign the executive order to save the current employee for 45 days while he interviewed the potential of employees.
But he vowed not to make anyone who felt that he behaved unethical in the investigation, who found Cuomo’s staff illegally retaliated against the former aide as soon as he said Cuomo was sexually harassing him.
Cuomo denied that he touched anyone inappropriately.
Cuomo faces the potential of criminal investigations to touch women without their consent, and the state and federal probe to minimize Covid-19 deaths among residents of nursing homes and use state resources to write $ 5 million in leadership books in the middle of a pandemic.
The new governor will decide whether to continue to pay lawyers to maintain the Cuomo administration in the probe.
