👤Andrew Cuomo announced he is resigning on Tuesday after the state’s attorney general found that he sexually harassed several women, as IJR reported.

The New York Times reported that 📺Chris Cuomo advised his brother to resign. According to the report, “The anchor concluded last week that his brother could not survive the political maelstrom, as the governor’s longtime allies abandoned him and support in the Democratic establishment dwindled.”

Earlier this month, the Times also noted CNN “floated the idea” earlier this year that if 📺Chris Cuomo wanted to advise his brother, “he could take a temporary leave from CNN and return to the network later.”

New York Lieutenant Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) will step in to take the governor’s place. She tweeted, “It is the right thing to do and in the best interest of New Yorkers. As someone who has served at all levels of government and is next in the line of succession, I am prepared to lead as New York State’s 57th Governor.”
