On Thursday, Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey, a Democrat, deployed 250 National Guard members to help with the surge of illegal aliens that have invaded the state.
They are primarily tasked with assisting in relocating illegals to various shelters across Massachusetts.
In a statement, Governor Healey said, “We’re grateful to the brave men and women of the National Guard for stepping up to help us ensure that every family in emergency shelter has their needs met, including access to food, transportation, medical care, and education. While we work to implement a more permanent staffing solution, the National Guard will provide an efficient and effective means of delivering these services and keeping everybody safe.”
The New York Post reported:
Massachusetts officials overwhelmed by arriving migrants have activated the national guard as they scramble for more housing, while aid groups say they have been pushed to the limit and protests abound.
Gov. Maura Healey mobilized 250 members of the Massachusetts National Guard on Thursday to help transport the latest wave of asylum seekers to shelters across the state.
But much like the crisis overtaking the Big Apple, Massachusetts has nowhere near enough housing or resources currently available to accommodate the influx.
Protesters gathered at the Yarmouth Resort hotel on Saturday to voice their concerns. Residents are unhappy because the state is considering using the hotel to house illegals, as homeless veterans and residents are being disregarded.
CBS Boston reported the protest.
