$400 million boost in federal funds for security at places of worship

Schumer, a Democrat, announced increased funding for the Nonprofit Security Grant Program, allowing synagogues and mosques to hire security personnel or install cameras to address rising threats against Jewish and Muslim communities.
$305 million was allocated last year to nonprofits for facility protection from potential attacks, with another round of funds available for houses of worship to apply by May 21.
The boost in funding aims to alleviate the fear of attacks on religious institutions, particularly amidst concerns heightened by the Israel-Hamas conflict.
