U.S. airports could face a new wave of long security lines as early as May after the nation’s homeland security chief said on Tuesday that he will run out of money to pay for 50,000 workers due to a partial government shutdown.
President Donald Trump in late March directed DHS to use emergency funds to pay Transportation Security Administration workers who had gone without paychecks for about six weeks, causing disruptions at U.S. airports. Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin told “Fox and Friends” on Tuesday that the money would run out by early May.
Hopefully they all call out sick.
If you’re not getting paid to be there, don’t be there.
Yeah, I had some really nice TSA agents, they’re usually far better than the ticket agents. I’m not saying we need the security theater, but the workers shouldn’t be the ones to suffer.
We did just fine before TSA
But who will confiscate your nail clippers and soda bottles without them?
The libertarians really are breaking the government.
This totally won’t bite them in the ass too. /s
Most Americans want to defund ICE. The DHS was defunded and chose which branch to pay.
When will we run out of money for war?
Good
yeah works for me to.
Then maybe the Republicans should get serious about funding them.
Name any other country in the world where this insanity happens on a regular basis
There are none, only the US is so fucked up that this shit is considered normal
Oh no. Anyway…
