Another Paterson administration official to leave

December

Gov. David Paterson announced this evening that Carl Andrews, deputy secretary for intergovernmental affairs, is resigning as of tomorrow. Andrews was a state senator representing New York City from 2002 to 2006, then he went on to become director of intergovernmental affairs to the New York City office during former Gov. Eliot Spitzer’s administration. Andrews had previously worked in intergovernmental relations for Spitzer when he was state attorney general.

In 2000, Andrews was deputy campaign manager for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, and he was campaign coordinator for New York City Comptroller William C. Thompson Jr. in 2001.

Paterson said Andrews is leaving to establish a consulting firm. The governor said in a statement that he was accepting the resignation of his colleague and friend with “deep regret.”

”Carl has been a dedicated public servant for over 25 years,” Paterson said.

Just what NY needs, another consulting (read lobbying) firm. Any of these guys have any idea how to make an honest living?
