New Orleans Airport Passengers Camp Overnight to Avoid Delays: TSA Agents Work Without Pay Amid Government Shutdown
Passengers at New Orleans Armstrong International Airport are camping out overnight in TSA security lines due to massive delays and missed flights caused by the ongoing partial government shutdown. The shutdown, now in its sixth week, has left TSA agents working without pay amid a heated political fight over border security funding. Frustrated passengers, who arrived early as advised, still faced long lines, with many expressing sympathy for the unpaid workers and frustration towards Washington. ICE agents are now stationed at airports nationwide to help with tasks, but a Democratic push to fund TSA separately failed in the Senate. As the shutdown continues into the holiday travel season, passengers brace for more disruptions.
