华盛顿,3月12日(路透社) – 周四,参议院民主党人试图为运输安全管理局(TSA)拨款的努力以失败告终,共和党人则要求议员们批准整个国土安全部的资金。

周四晚些时候,参议院将就共和党提出的为整个国土安全部提供资金的提案进行程序性投票。由于共和党参议员伯尼·莫雷诺反对民主党提出的单独为TSA提供资金的提案,预计该投票将像此前的尝试一样失败。

上周,TSA机场工作人员的缺勤已扰乱了部分主要机场的旅行,由于繁忙的春假旅行季节临近,航空公司对此表示担忧。

双方互相指责僵局的原因。民主党人表示共和党人是在”劫持人质”,而共和党人则称民主党人在进行政治作秀,且未能为整个国土安全部(DHS)提供资金。

2月13日,由于国会未能就民主党要求的移民执法改革达成协议,国土安全部的资金支持到期。

TSA表示,自停摆开始以来,在全美5万名机场工作人员中,已有300多人辞职。TSA工作人员周五将错过他们的第一笔全额薪水。

航空公司预计春季旅行期将创纪录,预计有1.71亿乘客出行,较去年同期两个月增长4%。

费城机场周四表示,由于TSA人员配置问题,将关闭一个航站楼安检口。本周早些时候,休斯顿霍比机场和新奥尔良等一些机场报告称,由于TSA人员缺勤增加,安检队伍超过两小时。

US Senate fails to end standoff over funding Homeland Security, airport screening

WASHINGTON, March 12 (Reuters) – Senate Democrats failed in a bid on Thursday to fund ​the Transportation Security Administration as Republicans demand lawmakers approve ‌funding for the entire Homeland Security Department.

The Senate later on Thursday is set to take a procedural vote on a Republican proposal to fund ​all of Homeland Security that is expected to fail like ​prior attempts, after Republican Senator Bernie Moreno objected to ⁠a Democratic proposal to separately fund the TSA.

Absences by TSA ​airport officers have already disrupted travel at some major airports ​over the last week, raising the alarm among airlines because of the busy spring break travel season.

Both sides are pointing fingers at each other for ​the standoff. Democrats said Republicans were taking hostages, while Republicans ​said Democrats were grandstanding and failing to fund all of DHS.

Funding for the ‌Department ⁠of Homeland Security lapsed on February 13 after Congress failed to reach a deal on immigration enforcement reforms demanded by Democrats.

TSA said more than 300 officers of the 50,000 working at U.S. ​airports have quit ​since the ⁠shutdown began. TSA workers on Friday will miss their first full paycheck.

Carriers are expecting a record-breaking ​spring travel period, with 171 million passengers expected ​to fly, ⁠up 4% over the same two-month period last year.

Philadelphia Airport said on Thursday it was closing a terminal checkpoint because of TSA ⁠staffing ​issues. Earlier this week, some airports ​like Houston Hobby and New Orleans reported security lines exceeding two hours as TSA ​absences rose.
