A slew of elected officials from Queens have blasted the Trump Administration’s decision to cut more than $300 million in federal funding for flood protection and climate resiliency across New York State, including resources to combat flooding in Queens.
U.S. Reps. Grace Meng and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez joined State Senators John Liu and Jessica Ramos, Assembly Members Larinda Hooks, Jessica González-Rojas and Nily Rozic, and Council Members Francisco Moya and Sandra Ung to issue a joint statement criticizing the Trump Administration over cuts to several key flood relief initiatives across New York State.
