Statement From Governor Kathy Hochul

"From the moment these devastating cuts were announced, I made it clear that New York would not stand by while our law enforcement and counterterrorism operations were defunded. I'm glad President Trump heard our call and reversed course, ensuring our state has the resources necessary to support law enforcement and keep our families safe.

"Because of our efforts, $187 million in critical funding will be restored - a victory for public safety and for every New Yorker who depends on our brave law enforcement and first responders to keep our state secure."
