Gov. Hochul to Deploy 1,000 National Guardsmen, State Cops to Carry Out Bag Checks in NYC Subways

TRANSCRIPT:

HOCHUL: "Point one, I’m redeploying nearly 1,000 members of the New York State Police, MTA Police, and MTA National Guard to conduct bag checks in the city’s busiest transits. You’ll start seeing them at the tables, making sure that weapons are not being brought in, working in concert with our New York State Police, as well as our NYPD, because no one heading to their job or to visit family or go to a doctor appointment should worry that the person sitting next to them possesses a deadly weapon."
