Statement From Rep. Tom Reed on DHS Blocking NY Residents from Global Entry Program

Statement

Date: Feb. 6, 2020
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: National Security

"This is yet another result of one-party extremist control in Albany hurting New Yorkers, and we warned of this impending outcome two weeks ago. As someone who lived through 9/11, I am astonished how Governor Cuomo could disregard the words of the 9/11 Commission where they noted "For terrorists, travel documents are as important as weapons.'

"The Department of Homeland Security provides many services to New York not provided to other states. Albany must repeal the Green Light Law before the federal government is forced to take further action."
