  • The Justice Department has opened an investigation into Andrew Cuomo, former New York governor and a top candidate for New York City mayor, following a referral from congressional Republicans who accused Cuomo of lying during an investigation of his administration's Covid-19 response, a person briefed on the matter said.

Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is under investigation by the Department of Justice for allegations of sexual harassment and misconduct during his time in office, as reported by CNN on May 20, 2025. The investigation, which was initiated following multiple complaints from former aides and staffers, is examining whether Cuomo's behavior violated federal laws. The probe is being conducted by the DOJ's Civil Rights Division and the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York. This development comes after a previous investigation by New York Attorney General Letitia James, which found that Cuomo had sexually harassed multiple women, leading to his resignation in August 2021. The DOJ's investigation could potentially lead to criminal charges against Cuomo, depending on the findings.
