In her write on Medium, Lindsey Boylan alleged that Cuomo once asked her to play strip poker and even kissed her on the lips while they were alone. "Governor Andrew Cuomo has created a culture within his administration where sexual harassment and bullying is so pervasive that it is not only condoned but expected," she wrote in her essay. Boylan went on to add that Cuomo's inappropriate behavior toward women was an affirmation that he liked them and, that they were doing something right.

Boylan has accused Cuomo of sexual harassment back in 2020 and the claims were denied by Cuomo, who said that the allegations were "just not true".

In her recent write-up, Boylan also claimed that she was not the only woman to have been harassed at the workplace by Cuomo. "The night before, a former Cuomo staffer confided to me that she, too, had been the subject of the Governor’s workplace harassment. Her story mirrored my own. Seeing his name floated as a potential candidate for U.S. Attorney General — the highest law enforcement official in the land — set me off."
