Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) condemned the Trump administration’s designation of New York City as an “anarchist jurisdiction,” which the Department of Justice announced Monday. This designation would enable the administration to withhold federal funding unless local officials restore law and order.
“We (New York’s congressional delegation) reject Trump’s partisan distraction and stand together in opposing any effort to cut funding for NYC,” Nadler wrote in a Tweet Tuesday morning.
