Cities Seek $750K from Trump Campaign for Rally Costs
News summary

Four cities and a county are pursuing over $750,000 in unpaid bills from Donald Trump's campaign for police and first responder services during his rallies, with some debts dating back to 2016. Erie, Pennsylvania alone claims more than $40,000 is owed for costs incurred during rallies in 2018 and 2023. The Trump campaign has deferred responsibility to the Secret Service, which states it typically requests local assistance for campaign events, but lacks a mechanism to reimburse local governments. The largest outstanding bill comes from El Paso, Texas, totaling nearly $570,000 from Trump's 2020 campaign. City officials express frustration over the lack of formal agreements regarding payment, further complicating the matter. Despite ongoing attempts to recover these funds, the campaign has reportedly ignored many invoices.
