New York Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul announced that the state’s Department of Labor identified roughly 18,000 private sector job openings at 379 different companies throughout the states that can be filled by asylum seekers with legal work status.
“We have to manage the fact that there’s 125,000 people right now, up until tomorrow, have not been eligible to work, and have relied on public support for housing,” Hochul said at a press conference. “That is not a sustainable dynamic. It is just not sustainable in the long term. But we’ve dealt with it. So, I’m going to call on businesses to sign up even more.”
The state identified 2,896 openings in Hudson Valley and 1,294 openings on Long Island, despite local officials in both areas either openly opposing or fighting in court against Adams’ efforts to relocate mostly male migrants to motels for extended months-long stays.
However, many of the jobs are far, far away from the Big Apple. “Not even 24 hours after conceding that the border crisis is a national security crisis, Governor Kathy Hochul is back to incentivizing illegal immigration, announcing 18,000 jobs for those who entered the United States illegally, including hundreds of jobs across Upstate New York and the North Country,” House GOP Chair Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., said in a statement to Fox News Digital.
