House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, both from New York City, speak to reporters outside the White House Monday after meeting with Republican Leadership and US President Donald Trump.  Trump has now frozen $18 billion in infrastructure funding for projects in New York.

On the first day of the federal government shutdown, the Trump administration froze “roughly $18 billion” in infrastructure projects for New York City, home to two of Trump’s Democratic congressional opponents. It’s not the first time Trump has threatened city funding over politics.
