The two women submitted their accusations a week after Attorney General Letitia James released her report against Andrew Cuomo. However, the women were told that it was too late for them since the investigation was concluded and they would have to submit a report to local authorities.

James was not notified about the new allegations and currently, Cuomo is accused of sexually harassing 11 women. Nine of the women were former or current state employees as reported by the New York Post.

An ex-aide to Governor Cuomo said he refused to hire a woman because she wasn’t “pretty enough” despite her work experience at Capitol Hill in Washington D.C.

“I knew her, she had a very good understanding of Capitol Hill politics and policy. She came in for an interview and I sat in since I had recommended her, and he said to me after, ‘No, I don’t think so.’ I asked, ‘Why?’ He said, ‘She’s not pretty enough. I don’t like the way she looks.’”

After AG James launched her report last week, Cuomo said in a follow-up statement that he is not planning to resign and continued to deny all claims of sexual harassment.

 I’ve lived my entire adult life in public view. That is just not who I am. I welcome the opportunity for a full and fair review before a judge and a jury, because this just did not happen,”
