Congressman James Comer, the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, is once again asking the Department of Justice to prosecute former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo​.

There is a new push to prosecute former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, accusing him of lying to Congress about his role in the COVID nursing home crisis. The House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic first referred Cuomo for criminal prosecution last October after concluding he made criminally false statements to Congress about efforts to undercount nursing home deaths.

A Republican-led congressional committee sent a letter Monday to Attorney General Pam Bondi re-upping its referral of former New York Gov. Andrew Coumo for prosecution, accusing him of lying during testimony before the panel as it was investigating the pandemic.
