Governor Hochul accuses former President Trump of undermining public safety in New York by allegedly blocking federal anti-terrorism funding intended for local law enforcement. The funds, which were part of a broader counterterrorism grant program, were reportedly withheld despite New York’s history of receiving such allocations. Hochul argues this move directly weakens the state’s ability to combat terrorism and maintain security. The dispute highlights ongoing tensions between state officials and the federal government over law enforcement priorities.
