Judge rules in favor of New York and New Jersey for now in $16B tunnel fight with Trump

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

43% : New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said in a statement said the judge's ruling "affirmed" that the Trump administration's funding freeze "is likely to be found unlawful." "This ruling is a victory for the thousands of union workers who will build Gateway and the hundreds of thousands of riders who rely on it every day," Hochul said. New York Attorney General Letitia James called the ruling a "victory for workers and commuters in New York and New Jersey," adding that the funding freeze "threatened to derail a project our entire region depends on." The $16.1 billion project includes a new railway tunnel under the Hudson River that would link New York and New Jersey.
