Weiner: City Would Lose $94 Billion Under GOP Budget

According to Democratic Congressional Representative Anthony Weiner's numbers, New York City would lose $94 billion in federal dollars over the next 10 years if the proposed Republican budget passes.

Among other cuts, the GOP budget, if approved, would slash funding for the city's 1 million seniors who rely on Medicare; cut $745 million in public school funding; strip the MTA of more than $2.3 billion in funds for vital rail and bus infrastructure; and result in deep cuts to the NYPD and public housing budgets. 

Weiner is seeking your feedback.
