Democrats
are still refusing to fund the Department of Homeland Security, forcing TSA
agents to work without pay for the third time
in five months, and American travelers are facing the
consequences.
Over the
weekend, travelers and TSA agents across the country felt the impacts of the
Democrats’ shutdown:
- Ontario,
California traveler: "It's wrong, Congress needs to
step up and do their job."
- New
Orleans, Louisiana traveler: "I had to change my
flight, so rather than a 3 PM flight it is now a 8 PM flight."
- Houston,
Texas traveler: “Lines were out the door and unfortunately,
we missed our flight. So this is our second time back, and we are back in
line again.”
- Houston,
Texas traveler: “We got here at 10 AM, my flight was
departing at 1:50 and we’re not going to make that.”
- Houston,
Texas traveler: "We have missed both our flights, we
were waiting in TSA just to get to security for 4 hours."
- Atlanta,
Georgia traveler: “I've flown into Atlanta several times,
and this is by far the longest I've ever seen in my life."
- Atlanta,
Georgia: "TSA employees are currently working without
pay for the second time in six months because of the partial government
shutdown."
- Phoenix,
Arizona TSA worker: “We're fed up. We've had enough. This
is the 3rd shutdown in a matter of 6 months...how many delays?”
Democrats know ICE is
already funded, but they are willing to force hardworking
Americans to suffer just to push their radical agenda and cater to their
far-Left base.
Shameful.
