The Trump administration has dropped its appeal of a federal court ruling concerning funding for the $16 billion Gateway tunnel project under the Hudson River. This move was made in the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals, where the federal government agreed to dismiss the appeal of a lower court ruling that had barred the Department of Transportation from freezing the project's funding. The project is located under the Hudson River.
