National Guard Could Clean NYC Trash Pileups, Cuomo Suggests
Patch ^ | 9-29-20 | Nick Garber

Posted on 09/29/2020 1:45:28 PM PDT by dynachrome

Gov. Andrew Cuomo suggested Tuesday that the state could send in the National Guard to help clean up piles of garbage that have mounted in some New York City neighborhoods during the pandemic.

"I don't know what's going on in New York City," the governor said in a news conference Tuesday afternoon. "If they can't do it, I have offered to send in the National Guard to come help pick up the garbage. The state can bring in trucks, personnel and clean up the city."

Complaints of trash pileups have been reported citywide over the summer, coinciding with a $106 million cut to the Department of Sanitation's budget, forcing the city to reduce the frequency of garbage collection, as well as an increase in New Yorkers working from home, producing more garbage in residential neighborhoods.

Start with those able people on Medicaid, welfare and unemployment. Don’t ask - tell them where to show up.

Cuomo hasn’t gotten his promissory death body count check from Pelosi yet and he probably won’t.

He should just order a general levy of all NYC residents to pick up trash. I’m sure that’s in the Wuflu Declaration of Emergency Powers Act somewhere.

The gambit will not be permitted by the union garbage collectors. Aren’t they owned by the Mafia?

Maybe they should contact some New Jersey waste disposal experts.
