Show Notes
As the partial government shutdown enters its twenty-sixth day, the Senate prepares to vote on a House-passed funding bill, but deep partisan divides threaten its chances. Democrats demand changes to ICE operations, while Republicans blame them for blocking essential funding. The impact is felt most by travelers, with over fifty thousand TSA screeners working without pay and call-outs nearly doubling at major airports. More than one hundred thousand DHS staff are also furloughed or unpaid, despite being told to keep working. With spring break crowds swelling and no deal in sight, essential workers continue without support as lawmakers head back to the floor for another round of tense talks.
