Massachusetts Democrat Gov. Maura Healey has activated the National Guard to help provide food, transport, and other care for migrant families living in emergency shelters.
Healey announced in a statement over the weekend that up to 250 National Guard members will be called on to assist with providing medical care, food, and transportation, as well as helping children enroll in local schools. The governor previously issued a state of emergency to help deal with the recent influx of migrant families to the state.
