The partial DHS shutdown that started in mid-February ended its immediate pressure on airports when the Senate passed a funding bill early Friday morning by voice vote. It covers most of DHS, including TSA paychecks for airport screeners, but excludes full funding for ICE and parts of CBP. The bill now goes to the House for quick approval before the recess.Trump announced Thursday he would sign an executive order directing the Homeland Security secretary to immediately pay TSA agents using funds from prior legislation, stepping in as lines grew and another missed paycheck loomed. ICE agents have stayed paid throughout and were even shifted to help at airports.This setup keeps enforcement priorities intact while getting TSA back on track fast.
