Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand — who led the charge resulting in former Minnesota Sen. Al Franken’s resignation over sexual misconduct claims — still says it’s not the time to call for Gov. Andrew Cuomo to step down. Talk of Cuomo’s resignation “isn’t the right conversation we should be having” and puts female lawmakers in an unfair position, Gillibrand told Yahoo Finance on Tuesday. “Asking every female elected in our state when a person should resign or not resign really isn’t the conversation we should be having,” she told the outlet.
