Airline CEOs Plead for Congress to Fund Aviation Workers Amid Shutdown
In an open letter, heads of major US airlines, including American, Delta, Southwest, and JetBlue, urge Congress to pass key bills to guarantee paychecks for federal aviation workers during the ongoing partial government shutdown. The Aviation Funding Solvency Act, Aviation Funding Stability Act, and Keep America Flying Act are proposed to protect air traffic controllers and TSA screeners, regardless of funding status. The shutdown, due to disagreements on immigration policies, has led to delayed pay for TSA staff, causing long security lines and staff shortages, impacting millions of travelers and threatening future events like the World Cup in 2026.
