New York City mayor Eric Adams plans to file a lawsuit against the Trump administration after it revoked more than $80 million in funding for migrant shelters.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt suggests that the administration feels paying for the hotels isn't a worthy expense.

New York City officials said the city had received two payments from the federal government as reimbursement for expenses the city incurred while providing services to migrants who arrived in New York,

The $80 million in funding was clawed back after the Trump administration claimed the money was being used to house migrants in “luxury hotels.”

The court ruled that the Trump administration had a narrowly defined path to withhold some funds to the city that had been approved by Congress.

The Department of Homeland Security says four federal employees have been fired over payments to reimburse New York City for hotel costs for migrants.

The acting head of the federal agency responsible for responding to disasters says he’s suspending payments sent to New York City to house migrants and that staff who made them will be held accountable.

The Trump administration took back $80 million in FEMA grant funds for New York City's migrant shelters, according to City Comptroller Brad Lander.
