New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Friday again said that he won’t resign from office, after more than a dozen New York Democratic U.S. representatives said he should step down.

“People know the difference between playing politics, bowing to cancel culture, and the truth. Let the review proceed. I’m not going to resign,” the New York Democrat said in a conference call on Friday, coming after Reps. Carolyn Maloney (D-N.Y.), Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.), and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), among others, said he should step down amid allegations that he sexually harassed women or acted in an inappropriate manner.
