由于政府部分停摆影响了运输安全管理局(TSA)特工,美国各地机场的旅客持续面临长时间排队。
国会在民主党提出的移民改革要求上陷入僵局,导致TSA员工周五未能收到首份全额薪水。根据CBS新闻独家获取的数据,自资金停摆开始以来,已有300多名TSA员工辞职,请假率增加了一倍多。
周末期间,在明尼阿波利斯-圣保罗国际机场,由于春假、即将到来的风暴和TSA人员短缺这三重因素叠加,部分旅客经历了长时间排队。
在得克萨斯州奥斯汀,机场在网上发布了出发大厅拥挤的照片。
在亚特兰大,安检口也挤满了人,一度等待时间接近两小时。
美国航空公司游说组织负责人克里斯·苏努努呼吁给员工发工资,他问道:“还有什么比支付自己的员工薪水更重要?”
“有政治分歧可以私下解决,但不要因此拖累整个乘坐美国航班旅行的公众,”他表示。
美国航空公司代表多家航空公司,其首席执行官们在周日给国会写信,要求采取行动,此前TSA人员未领到一分钱薪水。
“这简直不可接受,”首席执行官们在信中写道,“当你没有收入时,很难甚至不可能养家糊口、支付油费和房租。”
两党互相指责。交通部长肖恩·达菲在福克斯新闻上说,他希望“民主党人能清醒过来,重启国土安全部(DHS)”。
民主党参议员马克·华纳在《面对国家》节目中表示:“如果我们无法就移民和海关执法局(ICE)改革达成一致,那就用共和党提出的预算给所有人发工资。”
周六,特朗普总统在社交媒体帖子中感谢仍在无薪工作的TSA特工,并指责民主党人导致政府持续停摆。

Travelers face long lines at airports after TSA workers miss first full paycheck
Updated on: March 16, 2026 / 10:24 AM EDT / CBS News
Travelers continue to face long lines at airports across the U.S. due to the partial government shutdown affecting TSA agents.
Congress is deadlocked over Democrats’ demands for immigration changes, and as a result, TSA employees missed their first full paycheck on Friday. Since the start of the funding lapse, more than 300 TSA employees have quit, and call-out rates have more than doubled, according to data obtained exclusively by CBS News.
Over the weekend, some travelers dealt with long lines at the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport amid the trifecta of spring break, an incoming storm and TSA staffing shortages.
In Austin, Texas, the airport posted pictures online of a crowded departures hall.
In Atlanta, the screening checkpoint was jam-packed, too, with a wait-time at one point of nearly two hours.
Chris Sununu, who leads the lobbying group Airlines for America, called for employees to be paid, asking: “What else is more important than paying your own workers?”
“Have your political fights on the side, but don’t drag down the entire traveling American public because of it,” he said.
Airlines for America represents a number of airlines whose CEOs sent a letter to Congress on Sunday pushing for action, after TSA officers received a $0 paycheck.
“That is simply unacceptable,” the CEOs wrote in the letter. “It’s difficult, if not impossible, to put food on the table, put gas in the car and pay rent when you are not getting paid.”
Both political parties are pointing the finger at one another. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said on Fox News that he hopes “Democrats will come to their senses, open up DHS.”
Democratic Sen. Mark Warner said on “Face The Nation” that “if we can’t agree on ICE reforms, let’s pay everybody else, with the budget that the Republicans laid out.”
In a social media post on Saturday, President Trump thanked the TSA agents going to work while not being paid, and blamed Democrats for the ongoing shutdown.
