아버지 뒤를 이어 미국 뉴욕 주지사가 되었던 Andrew Cumo가 최근 성희롱 문제로 인해 사임했습니다
10년동안 재임하며 최근 미국에서 코로나 문제가 가장 심각했던 뉴욕주를 잘 이끌어서
좋은 명성도 얻었던 민주당 소속의 주지사였는데요
아직까지 본인의 혐의는 부인하고 있습니다
하지만 정부가 제대로 돌아가려면 자기가 사임해야 할것 같다고 입장을 발표하면서 사임했습니다
최근 직장내 성희롱에 관련된 문제가 많이 나오는것 같습니다
참으로 듣기 좋지 않은 소식들입니다
앞으로 이러한 일들이 이러나지 않도록 좀더 강력한 법안과
내부에서 철저한 조사들이 이뤄지면 좋겠습니다
함께 기사를 살펴보겠습니다
'The best way I can help now is if I step aside and let government get back to governing - and therefore, that's what I'll do.'
