New Jersey gubernatorial candidates are blaming each other after the Trump administration froze billions in federal funding for infrastructure projects, including the vital Hudson Tunnel. Democrat Mikie Sherrill accused opponent Jack Ciattarelli of failing to stand up to President Trump, while Ciattarelli's campaign blamed Sherrill's opposition to a funding bill. The freeze, announced amid a federal shutdown, cites "unconstitutional DEI principles" and Democrats "holding the government hostage." Sherrill vowed to fight for the project, while Ciattarelli has ruled out lawsuits.
