Trump promises to release stalled NYC infrastructure funds if Senator Schumer agrees to name projects after him
February 6, 2026


Donald Trump told Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer that he would release frozen infrastructure funds for New York City on one condition: Schumer must support renaming Dulles International Airport and Penn Station after Trump. This demand comes after Trump blocked 18 billion dollars intended for a New York subway expansion and a new rail tunnel. A spokesperson for Schumer declined to comment. The report also notes that Trump has pushed to put his name on other government buildings and websites, though it is unclear if he has the legal authority to do so.
