New York state lawmakers will suspend the impeachment investigation into Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) the day the scandal-ridden governor officially leaves office, the state assembly leader announced Friday. 

The investigation, which launched in March, was supposed to determine whether Cuomo should be removed from office, and came after several women accused him of sexual harassment and inappropriate conduct. At the time, he was also facing questions about his nursing home policies, his administration’s decision to withhold nursing home death data from lawmakers, and his decision to profit off a pandemic memoir about leadership.
