Description

Air travel chaos ensues as the partial government shutdown enters its thirty-seventh day, causing long security lines and staffing shortages at major airports. Two pilots recently died at LaGuardia, adding to the turmoil. The Senate returns today, with votes planned on the SAVE America Act and an Iran war powers resolution. Airline CEOs are pleading with Congress to end the standoff, affecting fifty thousand TSA staff. Democrats blame Trump for blocking paychecks over the SAVE Act. The shutdown, started February fourteenth, is the second-longest ever, making travelers suffer during spring break and March Madness. A funding deal is crucial to get airports moving smoothly again before Easter recess.
