> President Donald Trump said he would look into whether the federal government could block a new pied-à-terre tax introduced by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani. A state court has temporarily halted the measure. Trump’s comments raise the possibility of federal involvement in the city’s tax policy. The statement focuses on a potential legal challenge to the tax rather than its implementation.
