Mayor Eric Adams to Sue Trump Admin Over Revoked $80M FEMA Migrant Shelter Funding
New York City Mayor Eric Adams plans to sue the Trump administration over the secret revocation of $80 million in FEMA migrant shelter funding, citing a clear breach of federal law and city ordinance. The move comes after the Trump administration unexpectedly cut off the funding for the city's migrant shelter system without prior notice or explanation.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams plans to sue the Trump administration over the revocation of $80 million in FEMA migrant shelter funding for the city's migrants, following a secret decision by the federal government to cut the funding. The funds were allocated to support the city's efforts to provide temporary housing and services to asylum seekers and migrants arriving at JFK Airport. Adams' lawsuit will argue that the Trump administration acted unilaterally without consulting the city or providing adequate notice of its intention to cut funding. The move is seen as a major escalation in the dispute over the Trump administration's handling of migrant shelter funding.
