A court has once again affirmed that this administration cannot punish New York by arbitrarily wiping out critical security resources and defunding law enforcement that keeps riders safe.
This ruling protecting critical counterterrorism funding is a victory for every New Yorker who rides our subways, buses, and commuter rails.
I will continue to be dismissive of outrageous claims like those. I will always support the outcomes of elections. That’s what our country has been founded on over the last 250 years.
Cutting $187 million, defunding our police and fire department here in New York City to protect us from possible terrorism attacks? My God, you can’t make this up.
