President Trump to Restart TSA Paychecks, Blames Democrats for Shutdown Crisis
President Trump announced he will sign an executive order to restart paychecks for Transportation Security Administration officers, who have gone over a month without full pay due to a government shutdown. The shutdown has led to thousands of absences and long security lines at major US airports, with over ten percent of TSA officers calling out sick daily and hundreds quitting entirely. Trump blamed Democrats for the crisis and directed the new Department of Homeland Security secretary to act immediately, but its unclear what legal authority he plans to use. The shutdown has also led to the deployment of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents and the consideration of using National Guard troops. Lawmakers remain deadlocked on reopening the Department of Homeland Security, with Senate Democrats pushing immigration reforms that Republicans have rejected so far.
