NYC Mayor Mamdani proposes cutting NYPD budget and halting 5,000-officer hire due to $5.4B deficit.
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is proposing to cut the NYPD’s budget and cancel plans to hire 5,000 new officers, reversing former Mayor Eric Adams’ expansion effort.
The preliminary FY 2027 budget caps the department’s size near 35,000 officers and reduces funding slightly to $6.38 billion, citing a $5.4 billion city deficit.
While key safety initiatives like mental health crisis response and community safety programs are excluded from the initial proposal, $421 million is set aside for urgent operational needs.
The final budget requires City Council approval by June.
