Migrant crisis: Hochul deploys 150 more National Guard troops to help NYC asylum seekers apply for work permits

By Ethan Stark-Miller Posted on September 25, 2023

Gov. Kathy Hochul on Monday announced she’s deploying another 150 National Guard troops to New York City to aid with the tide of migrants continuing to overwhelm the Adams administration, while defending her office’s efforts to handle the influx.

The additional troops, Hochul said, will bring the total number of National Guard members assisting the city with its migrant response to 2,200. Along with the latest deployment of National Guard personnel, Hochul is directing 250 of those troops to solely assist with casework for newcomers — helping them complete the necessary paperwork to attain legal work status and move out of city shelters.
