I was extremely disappointed to see New Yorks overall allocation for the UASI program decreased by almost $83 million. It is tough to understand why. considering New York City remains the highest target to terrorism. New York has been attacked and targeted not once. but multiple times. and its security is a national concern. In fact. a Pakistani immigrant was just convicted last week for attempting to blow up a subway station at Herald Square. I have been fighting for a threatbased funding formula for several years because homeland security funding should be based on population. threat. vulnerability. and consequence. The pyogram should never be used for pork spending.
