With his resignation, Governor Cuomo has acknowledged that he could no longer effectively lead our State. We are grateful that this sad chapter in our State is coming to a close and we applaud the courage of the women who stepped forward. The Sullivan County Democratic Committee and I personally welcome incoming Governor Kathy Hochul, the first woman to lead our State. She has proven to be an accomplished and effective leader at almost every level of Government. We are confident that on becoming Governor she will lead the way to a brighter, stronger future. We call on all parties and all leaders to coalesce behind Governor Hochul and work together to help our State overcome the challenges we face, both economically and in defeating the pandemic.

Chair, Sullivan County Democratic Committee
