Show Notes

CEOs of major U.S. airlines urge Congress to end the partial government shutdown, warning of major delays and increased absences among TSA officers working without pay. With spring break travel on the rise, they fear a record number of passengers will be affected. The executives, including leaders from American, United, Delta, Southwest, and others, sent an open letter blaming the shutdown for turning air travel into a political issue. Senators from both parties failed to fund the agency, and over three hundred officers have quit since February. The CEOs call for new laws to guarantee pay for critical aviation staff during future shutdowns.
