Pritzker.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SPRINGFIELD, Ill. \u2014 Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker on Wednesday called up 75 members of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-army\/2017\/11\/08\/illinois-national-guard-opens-new-646m-aviation-facility\/\" target=\"_blank\">Illinois National Guard<\/a> to help organize shelter, food and medical care for migrants arriving by bus from Texas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Democratic governor signed an emergency declaration to speed up procurement of necessary supplies as well as seek National Guard help with logistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">About 500 people seeking asylum in the United States have been transported from the border by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2015\/04\/28\/texas-governor-tells-state-guard-to-monitor-army-training\/\" target=\"_blank\">Texas Gov. Greg Abbott<\/a> since the end of last month. Thousands have also been shipped to New York City and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2022\/08\/05\/pentagon-denies-dc-request-for-national-guard-migrant-help\/\" target=\"_blank\">Washington, D.C.<\/a>, Democratic-led cities serving as sanctuaries for immigrants.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/news\/your-military\/2022\/08\/22\/pentagon-rejects-dc-request-for-national-guard-migrant-help-again\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP22209694395161.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Pentagon rejects DC request for National Guard migrant help \u2014 again<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin rejected a similar D.C. request earlier this month.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pritzker said buses arrive with little advance notice and that attempts to communicate with Texas colleagues go unheeded, which Pritzker says Abbott ordered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTo Gov. Greg Abbott: Now is the time to stop trying to sow the seeds of chaos, to put aside politics and focus on human rights, communicate with us, have your state agencies call us back,\u201d Pritzker said at a Chicago news conference. \u201cSpare us the unnecessary drama and let us go about the work to resettle these asylum seekers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Abbott\u2019s office did not respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pritzker\u2019s emergency declaration speeds up procurement of needed supplies and the National Guard will help provide services they need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are now 11 buses deep, and we know from speaking with our counterparts in New York and D.C., this will not relent,\u201d said Grace Hou, secretary of Human Services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last spring, Abbott and Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey, both Republicans, announced plans to send&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/religion-venezuela-new-york-caribbean-city-97d01964ca0d0211bb1c45fe3b789f7f\" target=\"_blank\">busloads of migrants<\/a>, largely from Central and South America, to Washington, D.C., in response to President Joe Biden\u2019s decision to lift a pandemic-era emergency health order that restricted migrant entry numbers by denying them a chance to seek asylum. Buses soon arrived in New York and in recent weeks, Chicago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis is about politics for him without regard to the fear and anguish and the challenges that it poses for these refugees,\u201d Pritzker said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Washington, D.C. sought the use of National Guard troops to help, but the&nbsp;Pentagon twice denied the request in August, saying it would weaken the readiness of the troops and that they did not have the training for direct contact with migrants to be able to provide food, sanitation or other support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Illinois faces no such barrier. Governors of states have control of their National Guard troops. And officials in Illinois say they\u2019re confident in the National Guard\u2019s assistance after watching how hey set up sites and distributed vaccines during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Illinois&#8217; governor called up members of the Illinois National Guard to help organize shelter, food and medical care for migrants
