Former President Donald Trump's rally was safe and secure, thanks in part to a large Nassau County police presence.

But Democratic and Republican lawmakers are arguing over who should foot the bill.

Nassau Democratic legislators are contending the Trump campaign should pay the over $1 million in estimated overtime cost, rather than the county.

They filed a complaint with the FEC Thursday, saying this type of contribution "must be reported and properly accounted for."

Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman responded in a statement, saying “Nassau County provides security and safety to all public figures and public events, regardless of party affiliation."
