Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is scheduled to appear before a congressional subcommittee on Sept. 10 to address his administration's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. Cuomo, known for implementing strict measures during the pandemic, faced criticism for policies that led to COVID-related deaths in nursing homes.
The hearing will focus on Cuomo's issuance of guidance that required nursing homes to admit COVID-19 positive patients, a decision that has been scrutinized for its impact on vulnerable populations. Rep. Nicole Malliotakis highlighted the lack of accountability from Cuomo and emphasized the need for answers regarding the directive.
