Mayor Eric Adams responded to reports of straw donations linked to his 2025 reelection campaign, asserting that his campaign follows all rules.

Some alleged donors denied any contributions, and issues arose regarding payment methods and addresses. Adams has maintained that his campaign does not knowingly accept straw donations, a claim contradicted by previous reports. He referred inquiries to his campaign's compliance attorney for clarification.
Adams said that his campaign follows all rules and has insisted they do not knowingly accept straw donations, despite multiple reported instances of such contributions.
