Trump Admin Takes Back $80 Million In FEMA Money Sent To New York City

The Trump administration took back $80 million in FEMA funding meant to help house migrants in New York City, city officials said this week.

The White House had promised to reverse the transfer, which the city applied for under former President Joe Biden. The money was disbursed last week, prompting an outcry from Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency.

A spokesperson or New York City Mayor Eric Adams said he had asked to meet with the White House to "try and resolve the matter as quickly as possible."
