DOJ Investigating Cuomo over Pandemic Testimony, AP Source Says

  • In May 2025, the Justice Department initiated a criminal probe concerning Andrew Cuomo, the ex-governor of New York, regarding his statements about how he handled COVID-19 in nursing homes.
  • The investigation was initiated following a request by Rep. James Comer, who accused Cuomo of providing false testimony to lawmakers during a 2024 hearing about his decisions related to nursing homes during the pandemic.
  • The investigation revisits a politically divisive issue involving a March 2020 directive that forced nursing homes to accept COVID-19 patients, potentially worsening outbreaks.
  • Cuomo’s spokesperson called the inquiry 'lawfare and election interference plain and simple' and stated Cuomo was never informed of the investigation.
  • The investigation could affect Cuomo’s 2025 New York City mayoral campaign and draws scrutiny to the Justice Department’s role amid claims of political retribution.
