updated, with 7th paragraph comments by Sen. Biaggi:
“The Assembly has had more than enough reason to draft articles of impeachment and begin impeachment hearings in the Senate as written in our Constitution. The Assembly Judiciary Committee’s investigation is simply an attempt to appease and buy time for the Governor, rather than holding him accountable for his actions,” said state Senator Alessandra Biaggi. “The lack of movement and transparency in the judiciary committee’s investigation only proves that point.”
