"In the aftermath of last week's horrific mass shooting, Donald Trump just stripped $87 million from New York's counterterrorism and public safety programs.
"These cuts will have a detrimental effect on key law enforcement agencies and their ability to keep New Yorkers safe, respond swiftly to threats, combat drug trafficking and investigate criminal networks.
"I call on Congress and the White House to act quickly to reverse this dangerous decision and restore essential funding. New York will continue doing everything in our power to protect public safety - but we need the federal government to meet its responsibilities and maintain the funding necessary to keep all Americans safe."
