New York Assembly to suspend impeachment probe upon Cuomo?s resignation, Speaker Heastie says

“There are two causes for this determination,” Heastie mentioned. “First, the aim of the Meeting Judiciary Committee’s impeachment investigation was to find out whether or not Governor Cuomo ought to stay in workplace. The governor’s resignation solutions that directive. Second, now we have been suggested by Chair Lavine — with the help of counsel — of the assumption that the structure doesn’t authorize the legislature to question and take away an elected official who’s now not in workplace.”
