New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo resigns

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced he is resigning, effective in 14 days after a state investigation found he “sexually harassed multiple women and violated state law.” He’s denied the allegations. Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul will replace Cuomo and will become the state’s first female governor. CNN’s Chief Political Correspondent Dana Bash joins AC360 to discuss Cuomo’s resignation. Plus, President Joe Biden celebrated the Senate’s passage of a historic, sweeping $1.2 trillion bipartisan deal. But hurdles remain in the House. But White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain tells Anderson Cooper “today’s win is a great win” and to do it on a bipartisan basis makes it a “more sustainable and stronger win.”
