Trusted Traveler

Last week, the Department of Homeland Security barred New Yorkers from joining Trusted Traveler programs — including Global Entry — which allow Americans to quickly pass through airports and borders. The change was prompted by a 2019 New York law that allowed undocumented immigrants to get driver’s licenses.

The law also restricted immigration officials from gaining access to data collected by the state’s Department of Motor Vehicles.

Federal officials said the lack of access to D.M.V. records would impede “efforts to keep our nation secure.” Mr. Cuomo, a third-term Democrat, accused the Trump administration of “extortion” over the Trusted Traveler ban and said the state planned to sue.

Since then, the governor has offered access to D.M.V. records of Trusted Traveler applicants on “a case-by-case basis.”

Residency and taxes

Mr. Trump severed an important tie to New York in September, when he declared himself a resident of Palm Beach, Fla. He confirmed the decision in a tweet that criticized New York’s elected officials.

“I have been treated very badly by the political leaders of both the city and state,” he wrote. “Few have been treated worse.”

(The Manhattan district attorney’s office is seeking the release of eight years of Mr. Trump’s business and personal tax records — a dispute that is now before the U.S. Supreme Court.)
