flag Mayor Adams faces criticism for taxpayer-funded overseas trips amid dropped federal charges over travel benefits.

flag Outgoing New York City Mayor Eric Adams, in his final month in office, has continued extensive international travel to Albania, Israel, and Uzbekistan, drawing criticism over taxpayer-funded trips amid a federal indictment—later dropped—over allegations of accepting improper travel benefits from foreign nationals. flag He met with global leaders, visited religious sites, and accepted an award in New Orleans from the Combat Antisemitism Movement, following a similar honor in Tel Aviv. flag While his office says the trips promoted economic innovation and diplomacy, critics accuse him of neglecting city duties and exhibiting "senioritis" as he explores potential overseas roles, a notion Adams has indirectly acknowledged.
