Thank you so much. Your answer sure explains the situation. What I was getting at: If the feds paid the Guards, then Cuomo would be getting federal taxpayers to pay for picking up his garbage.

Of course! Yup, if he calls up the Guard it would still be State money, not everybody's. Now, I'm not 100% sure if Guard's AT and regular M-Day pay (one weekend a month) is only from the State, or funded through National NGB, which would be US taxpayer dollars. Theoretically he could use guys on those orders to do it, but that would come at the cost of scheduled training and everything.
