What About Unemployed Americans?

On Sunday, BizPac Review posted an article about a new job assistance program that New York Governor Kathy Hochul is putting into place.

The article reports:

New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced a new job assistance program to benefit the illegal aliens who have descended on the state at a time when 380,000 of her own citizens are out of work.

The Democrat-controlled sanctuary state has been the nation’s top beneficiary of President Joe Biden’s open-border immigration policies, with the majority of the tens of thousands of new arrivals who have mostly settled in New York City, overwhelming the local government’s ability to house them.

Hochul, who is pleading with the Biden administration to speed up the process of providing migrant work permits, rolled out the Empire State’s own jobs program, authorizing the New York State Department of Labor (DOL) to assist illegals by connecting them with employers to facilitate their hiring.

“Today, @NYSLabor is launching a process for asylum seekers to sign up for employment opportunities, so they can quickly find a job after attaining legal work status, and will also unveil a new process for employers to express their interest in hiring work-authorized migrants,” the Democrat leader wrote on Twitter/X on Thursday, the day that she delivered a livestreamed address on the migrant crisis.

As is mentioned in the article, 380,000 New Yorkers are out of work. Why is the work situation of the illegal aliens getting more attention than the work situation of legal Americans who live in New York?

The actions of Governor Kathy Hochul are not the actions of a governor who is working for the people of her state. She is neither protecting the sovereignty of her state or the residents of her state. I wonder how long it will be before New Yorkers wake up and vote her out of office.
