New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio called for an investigation into claims of sexual harassment made against Gov. Andrew Cuomo by staffer Lindsey Boylan.

“These allegations are really disturbing. Let’s be clear about that—they’re really disturbing. We have to, as New Yorkers, we got to take this seriously. When a woman comes forward with this kind of very specific allegations, they have to be taken serious. We need a full and independent investigation,” de Blasio said on Feb. 25. “This is just unacceptable. This kind of behavior, if true, is unacceptable, in any public servant, in anybody.”

Boylan, in a post on Medium on Feb. 24, alleged that Cuomo, a Democrat who is currently under fire for how New York state handled nursing home COVID-19 deaths, harassed her “for years.” She claimed that Cuomo told her in one instance, “Let’s play strip poker.”

“Governor Andrew Cuomo has created a culture within his administration where sexual harassment and bullying is so pervasive that it is not only condoned but expected. His inappropriate behavior toward women was an affirmation that he liked you, that you must be doing something right. He used intimidation to silence his critics. And if you dared to speak up, you would face consequences,” she wrote.
