Show Notes
Federal workers at DHS face funding delay, causing safety concerns and paycheck shortages. Around 100,000 staff saw reduced or no pay last Friday due to a partial government shutdown. Key agencies like TSA, FEMA, and cybersecurity teams await new approval. Employees in Arizona, including TSA officers, are hit hardest, with newer hires receiving zero pay after deductions. Union reps express anxiety over potential repeat of past shutdowns. The delay strains critical missions and national security efforts. Workers demand accountability from both parties to pass a budget soon.
