28 May 2021: New Cuomo Scandal Timeline

We don't anticipate much in the way of breaking news for Governor Cuomo's multiple scandals over the Memorial Day holiday weekend, which makes it a good time to catch up with its recent history.

In focus: A timeline of recent controversies embroiling the Cuomo administration

This article introduces a timeline of the Center Square's coverage of Governor Cuomo's scandals, whose content we've periodically featured in the timeline. The Center Square's timeline is presented in reverse chronological order, spanning from 29 September 2020 when NY state senator Jim Tedisco filed an amicus brief supporting the Empire Center for Public Policy's lawsuit against the New York Department of Health to pry loose its data on the COVID deaths of nursing home residents, through 17 May 2021, when the $5.12 million payout set in the publishing contract for Governor Cuomo's pandemic "leadership" book deal were finally revealed.
