Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-OH), chair of the Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic announced Tuesday that former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo will testify publicly before Congress for the first time regarding his pandemic response.

Cuomo is scheduled to appear on September 10, where he will be questioned about his administration’s issuance of “unscientific guidance that forced New York nursing homes and long-term care facilities to admit COVID-19 positive patients,” according to a press release from the committee.

Earlier this year, Cuomo appeared before the Select Subcommittee for a seven-hour, closed-door, transcribed interview. The Select Subcommittee has also conducted transcribed interviews with nine high-ranking former Cuomo Administration officials, including the former Secretary to the Governor, Ms. Melissa DeRosa, and the former New York Health Department Commissioner, Dr. Howard Zucker.

According to the release, transcripts from all interviews related to the New York nursing home crisis will be released before Cuomo’s hearing.
