Trump admin to release Gateway Tunnel Project funds after judge ruling
Federal officials were expected to release millions in funding for the Gateway Tunnel project by Thursday afternoon after a federal court ordered the money be restored. About 1,000 construction workers could return to the job after being sidelined during the legal fight. According to our partners at FOX 5 New York, New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill said the ruling from the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals requires the funds to be released immediately and will allow construction to resume on the long-delayed rail project beneath the Hudson River. Chris Marquette, a POLITICO Transportation Reporter, is speaking with LiveNOW’s Andy Mac as the project continues to face uncertainty, despite funds being released.This comes after the Trump administration froze funding in September, citing last fall’s government shutdown.White House budget director Russ Vought wrote on social media at the time that officials believed the spending was tied to unconstitutional diversity, equity and inclusion policies. The U.S. Department of Transportation said it was reviewing any "unconstitutional practices."
"It’s time — I would actually say it’s way past time — that the president releases the Gateway Tunnel funds," Gov. Sherrill said. "He’s illegally stopped them, the courts have spoken, and now it’s time for people to get back to work." In a lawsuit filed last week, New York Attorney General Letitia James and New Jersey Acting Attorney General Jennifer Davenport argued the funding freeze was unlawful and violated federal obligations. They asked a judge to order payments to resume immediately.
