Time’s Up president and chief executive Tina Tchen resigned, becoming the organization’s second longtime leader to depart amid the scandal over the organization’s involvement with former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
Time’s Up president and chief executive Tina Tchen resigned Thursday, becoming the organization’s second longtime leader to depart amid the scandal over the organization’s involvement with former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo.
But Tchen, a longtime corporate lawyer and former chief of staff for former first lady Michelle Obama, said it was time for her to step aside. Earlier this month, the group’s former chairwoman, Roberta Kaplan, resigned after it was revealed that her private law firm was representing a key lieutenant of Cuomo’s, and that Kaplan had helped coordinate communications with the former governor’s staff.
The crisis comes four years after the Harvey Weinstein scandal galvanized the #MeToo movement, prompting a parade of Hollywood elite led by Oprah Winfrey and Reese Witherspoon to proclaim their campaign at the 2018 Golden Globes awards show. Time’s Up raised $20 million to help sex abuse victims mount legal cases.
