In a speech, Gov. KAthy Hochul criticized the White House for not doing more to help with the surge of migrants coming to New York.
In the latest Siena College Poll, 82% of New Yorkers say that the recent influx of migrants is a serious problem, with more than 50% labeling it a very serious problem.Speed up the process for work authorization so migrants can get to work faster. This process can take up to two years when it is technically supposed to be a 6 month wait time.
"Scattering people all over the state does not allow us to manage the most important element…which is to start the process to allow them to work because I have the jobs," Hochul said on Monday. More than 104,000 migrants have arrived in New York City since last spring and the city is still currently caring for more than 59,000 migrants.
But Hochul has been very against this and once again on Thursday said the right-to-shelter mandate does not apply to the rest of the state. "I do believe we have a moral imperative to help these new arrivals," Hochul said on Thursday. "I'm grateful to the counties that have welcomed and supported the migrants."
