In a video interview with Daily Voice, Katz, who represents the 94th District, said he is convinced Cuomo is corrupt and an "Orwellian liar," accusing Cuomo of ending the commission, which investigated public corruption, when it was starting to investigate Cuomo's campaign.
"To be able to say the Moreland Commission did a magnificent job?" Katz said. "Come on, are we all that stupid?"
Katz said Cuomo loves to pick winners and losers and said his economic plan has been a failure.
"The economic development zones that he wanted basically were rejected by both the senate and the assembly in the budget this year," Katz said. "Yet he put them back in. Only him."
The assemblyman said Cuomo is the reason New York is in the dreadful situation it's in.
"We have not gotten any better regardless of what his lies are," Katz said. "So I call him a liar. Yes, the governor is a liar."
Katz is running on the Republican ticket against Democratic nominee Andrew Falk. The 94th District covers Yorktown, Somers and Putnam.
