New York Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul will succeed Gov. Andrew Cuomo after he resigns in two weeks.

Cuomo announced on Tuesday that he will step down in 14 days. His decision came a week after independent investigators for the state's attorney general's office found that the governor sexually harassed 11 women, including his current and former employees.

Hochul, 62, is set to become the first woman to lead New York.
