"volunteer" is a bit of fake news.

These people "volunteered" for temporary employment in New York. They're getting paid.

The bad news is New York state taxes are double or triple the tax rates these people usually see, so they're take-home is going down, substantially.

If they don't have a half decent tax accountant, or they dont have state income tax reciprocity across states, these people will be paying state income tax in both New York AND their home state.

Again, these taxes are deductable from federal taxes, so in the end, it's the rest of the country paying to subsidize New York womp womp, yep NY is fucking them
