New York May Screw 4,000 Legal Residents Out Of A Job – So Migrants Can Have Them<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

In a move that would once again punish those who entered the country legally, the state of New York is mulling a plan to hire around 4,000 ‘migrants and asylum seekers’<\/strong> into mostly entry-level jobs that are allegedly ‘hard to recruit for,’ according to a Jan. 12 memo from the Department of Civil Service obtained by Bloomberg<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

The jobs in question would largely consist of areas like food service, equipment repairs, facilities management and office assistance, and would apply to those who have obtained a work permit, the memo states.<\/p>\n

To make these jobs more accessible, the state is proposing to create \u201ctransitional\u201d titles with requirements more in line with the candidates\u2019 qualifications<\/strong>. Once in those jobs, the workers would receive training and support to help them gain the necessary skills to be eligible for permanent roles. -Bloomberg<\/em><\/p>\n

“These individuals are able to perform many of the core duties of the positions that state agencies seek to fill<\/strong>,” the memo continues.<\/p>\n

Amid an influx of over 170,000 migrants bussed from southern border states ill-equipped to handle them, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) has proposed a $2.4 billion plan to help provide for them. She’s also called on the Biden administration to speed up work permits, and boost federal aid for the migrants – arguing that letting them work would help the state’s economy and mitigate the humanitarian crisis<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Nevermind the 14% of New York state that’s already living in poverty, or the roughly 436,000 unemployed legal <\/strong>New York residents.<\/p>\n

According to NYC Mayor Eric Adams (D), the city will peel off roughly $10.6 billion in taxpayer funds to care for migrants over the three-year period ending in June 2025<\/strong>, with the city spending an average of $352 per night to care for each migrant family, according to city budget officials.<\/p>\n

“This initiative, which has not yet been implemented, would offer temporary employment opportunities that are available for anyone who can legally work in the United States<\/strong>,” said Hochul spox Avi Small. “Governor Hochul has prioritized modernizing our state workforce and eliminating red tape, and she has instituted a series of reforms to achieve that goal.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
