New York Officials Warn Safety at Risk as Counterterror Funds Withheld
TL;DR Summary
Gov. Kathy Hochul and NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani say the Trump administration is withholding about $87 million in promised counterterrorism funding for New York, a move they argue imperils public safety ahead of the 9/11 anniversary. DHS counters that New York has not spent roughly $300 million in related grants. The dispute follows prior cuts to aid by Trump and has become a political flashpoint as Hochul faces a Trump-backed opponent in reelection.
