"Due to the impact on resources from the longstanding government shutdown, Delta will temporarily suspend specialty services to members of Congress flying Delta. Next to safety, Delta's no. 1 priority is taking care of our people and customers, which has become increasingly difficult in the current environment."
"It's inexcusable that our security agents, our frontline agents, that are essential to what we do, are not being paid, and it's ridiculous to see them being used as political chips."
Delta Air Lines has temporarily suspended its Specialty Services perk for Congress members amid the government shutdown that has left TSA workers unpaid. The airline stated that prioritizing customer and employee care has become challenging due to the shutdown's impact. The decision follows criticism of Congress for failing to resolve the shutdown, which has led to long airport lines and financial instability for TSA workers. Delta's CEO expressed outrage over the situation, emphasizing the essential role of TSA agents and their lack of pay during the crisis.
