According to the New York Post Saturday, several staffers are disappointed in the governor and have stopped showing up to work.<\/p>\n<p>The latest sign of defiance from those close to him came as the list of accusers continued to grow. On Friday, reporter Jessica Bakeman became the seventh woman to come forward. She accused Cuomo of sexually harassing her on multiple occasions.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Drawn-looking Cuomo photographed in a blanket as pressure builds for him to resign <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/gNFuNQQbDL\">https:\/\/t.co\/gNFuNQQbDL<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/DP1ts1dedt\">pic.twitter.com\/DP1ts1dedt<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Fox News (@FoxNews) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FoxNews\/status\/1370549182075961347?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 13, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In the meantime, the governor\u2019s other accusers include former and current employees.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI decided to share my story because it\u2019s a small piece of a much larger more elaborate puzzle that I think New Yorkers should be aware of,\u201d former Policy and Operations aide to Cuomo Anna Liss said. \u201cIt\u2019s still happening and I don\u2019t think Albany or state government working in the executive chamber is a safe space for young women early in their careers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>More than 50 state lawmakers, including a majority of House Democrats in New York\u2019s delegation and several others, have urged the embattled governor to resign.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have to move forward in New York state,\u201d Rep.

Lindsey Boylan, the first former aid to come forward, condemned the Biden administration over its continued silence on the matter.
