"ICE is there to help our brothers and sisters in TSA. We'll be there as long as they need us, until they get back to normal operations and feel like those airports are secure."
"It's good news because these TSA officers are struggling."
President Trump ordered emergency pay for TSA agents to address long security lines at major U.S. airports. Despite this, travelers are still advised to arrive early as federal immigration officers may remain deployed to assist. The TSA has faced staffing shortages, with nearly 500 officers quitting since the funding lapse. White House officials indicate that the duration of ICE's assistance depends on the return of TSA employees to work and their willingness to continue in their roles. TSA officers are expected to receive pay soon.
