TSA Personnel Compensation During Government Shutdown
Where Things Stand
President Trump signed an executive order to pay TSA workers who missed wages during a 40-day partial government shutdown. This action uses money from the 2025 tax and spending bill to prevent airport security delays while the Department of Homeland Security remains unfunded. Paychecks are expected to reach employees starting this Monday.
Key Statements
“President Trump signs a memo directing TSA personnel to be paid using funds from the 2025 tax and spending bill to mitigate security delays during a DHS shutdown.”
This identifies the specific funding source used to bypass the ongoing government shutdown.
“President Trump issued a memo directing immediate pay for TSA workers... as DHS announces checks should arrive starting Monday.”
This provides the specific timeline for when the affected employees will receive their compensation.
