Without a budget, the department has been forced to furlough the civil rights staff responsible for conducting this review,&#8221; the statement said.<\/p>\n<p>New York City voters also lean heavily Democratic.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Schumer and Jeffries have yet to respond to the infrastructure funding freeze news.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Asked about the move, Senate Majority Leader John Thune said, &#8220;Vote to open up the government, that issue goes away, right?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Senate has failed to approve House-passed legislation to keep the government funded through Nov. 21, sending the country into a government shutdown on Wednesday morning.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Hudson Tunnel Project is a decadelong effort to build a new two-tube rail tunnel under the Hudson River and rehab the existing North River Tunnels for Amtrak and NJ Transit traffic on the Northeast Corridor, the busiest Amtrak region in the country. The Second Avenue Subway project, which is currently in its second phase, aims to extend the Q subway line into East Harlem and Harlem, as well as add new stations.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>    <!--
