White House says funds to pay TSA and other Homeland Security workers will ‘soon run out’
The White House warns that funds to pay Department of Homeland Security personnel, including TSA workers, will soon be exhausted, risking disruptions to essential operations. Funding initially provided through executive actions by President Trump is expected to run out by May, prompting urgent calls for congressional action. The delay stems from a prolonged political standoff over immigration enforcement funding, leaving the department without regular appropriations for over two months.
