Cuomo still collecting money from New York government, received first pension check last month
Fox News
Former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who resigned this year amid cascading scandals, is still collecting money from the state government.
"Andrew M. Cuomo’s gross monthly retirement benefit with the New York State and Local Retirement System has been finalized and is $4,219.11," a spokesman for the New York comptroller's office said. "He received his first pension payment in October of 2021."
The pension checks for the former governor come as he faces a charge for a misdemeanor sex crime in Albany, stemming from the sexual misconduct scandal that forced Cuomo to resign earlier this year. Cuomo also faces allegations that he improperly used Executive Chamber staff to write his book about the COVID-19 pandemic.
