TSA Absenteeism Causes Airport Chaos, Presidential Order Restores Order
Last week, Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport faced severe congestion due to a high absentee rate among TSA agents during the government shutdown. Lines stretched up to four hours, and some checkpoints had to close, leaving thousands of travelers stranded. However, after President Trump signed an order to pay the TSA crew, the situation improved dramatically. By Tuesday, the absentee rate dropped to 10.5%, and by Thursday, over 27,000 passengers passed through with waits under ten minutes. All checkpoints are now open, and travelers are advised to arrive two hours early.
