TSA Workers Finally Get Paid After Missing 2 Paychecks During DHS Shutdown

Most Transportation Security Administration workers received pay on Monday for at least two missed paychecks, a major development after weeks of financial strain and operational chaos tied to the partial shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security. The payment helped ease some of the worst airport bottlenecks seen in recent memory, though the broader funding standoff in Washington remains unresolved. The breakthrough came after President Donald Trump signed an emergency directive on Friday, allowing TSA officers to be paid, even as Congress remained deadlocked over DHS funding.
