LYNDEN, Wash. (AP) – Whatcom County still hasn’t heard back after asking Donald Trump’s campaign to reimburse the county for security costs.

The County Council asked the campaign for $53,000 related to last year’s Trump rally in Lynden.

The council does not plan to pursue the reimbursement any further.

A tally by the county and The Bellingham Herald shows that law enforcement around the region racked up nearly $307,000 in expenses to help with event security.
