在周五就已陷入超时的资金对峙背景下，宾夕法尼亚州民主党参议员约翰·费特曼强调议员们必须结束旅行延误状况，支持该国本已疲弱的机场安保力量，并警告称，即将到来的2026年国际足联世界杯安保筹备工作“大幅落后”。
“从一开始我就无法为此辩解，但我们现在已经到了第39天，还是第40天？问题是，你们还打算继续僵持多久？”费特曼上周在接受福克斯新闻数字频道采访时说道。
费特曼担忧，此次停摆——短短三个月内运输安全管理局员工遭遇的第二次停摆——已对美国的运输安保 workforce 造成难以逆转的破坏，而美国即将迎来多项高关注度国内活动。
“筹备工作大幅落后，现在距离世界杯开幕只剩77天，却仍处于停摆状态，”费特曼在谈及世界杯赛事时表示，“届时将有数百万海外游客到访，还有数百万美国人前来观赛。”

费特曼发表此番言论之际，参议院已于周五凌晨通过了国土安全部大部分资金拨款法案。该法案拟为隶属于国土安全部的众多机构提供资金，其中包括特勤局、海岸警卫队、联邦紧急事务管理局（FEMA）、运输安全管理局等，但未纳入移民海关执法局（ICE）的拨款。
国土安全部的资金于2月14日首次枯竭，当时民主党将支持该机构作为条件，要求出台一系列改革措施，以遏制唐纳德·特朗普总统的移民镇压政策。
参议院的法案未包含民主党提出的任何改革条款，同时也未为移民海关执法局提供拨款。该提案在众议院遭到强烈反对，就连众议院议长、路易斯安那州共和党议员迈克·约翰逊也抨击了这项试图通过的决议。
“昨晚的这场策略就是个笑话。我相当确信——不可能每个参议院共和党人都仔细阅读了该法案的文本。这相当令人担忧。法案写道，‘引用：本法案标题下所列内容：美国移民和海关执法局及边境安全行动……最终法案中指定的金额应为零’，”约翰逊在宣读参议院法案文本时说道。
“我们不会这么做，”约翰逊补充道。
不过，该机构已于2025年7月通过特朗普的《一项宏伟法案》获得了750亿美元资金——这笔资金至少足以支撑该机构运营至2026年。众议院共和党人强调，目前尚不清楚这些资金是否可合法用于资助移民海关执法局的所有运营活动。
众议院并未通过参议院的方案，而是于周五深夜推进了自己的一揽子计划，该计划将在现有水平上延长国土安全部两个月的拨款，为议员们就移民海关执法局的问题继续谈判争取更多时间。参议院很可能会否决众议院的这项提案。

就在议员们就移民海关执法局的资金对峙僵持不下之际，国土安全部的发言人也呼应了费特曼的呼吁，要求恢复国土安全部的运营，并谴责反复停摆带来的连锁反应。
“目前已有366名运输安全管理局官员离职。由于这场国土安全部停摆，全美各地的美国人正面临数小时的机场等待时间。民主党必须立即恢复国土安全部的运作，”该机构发言人劳伦·比斯在一份新闻稿中表示。
尽管特朗普已于周五签署行政令，拟为运输安全管理局员工发放薪资，但该机构也指出，即便停摆问题有望解决，美国的旅行安保工作仍需时间恢复。
“运输安全管理局没有时间可以浪费。国际足联世界杯将于6月11日开赛——不到三个月后就要开幕了。我们预计将有大量旅客通过机场观赛，客流量会大幅增加，”国土安全部在一份新闻稿中说道。
“即便国土安全部停摆结束后，运输安全管理局立即招聘新官员，这些新员工也需要等到世界杯完全结束后，才能在安检点开展工作。”

费特曼敦促本党议员优先解决国家亟待解决的旅行安全需求，而非继续追求自身的诉求。
“越来越难为继续这场停摆找到合理的解释了，”费特曼说道。

DHS shutdown putting Americans at risk as World Cup security prep ‘significantly behind’: Sen Fetterman

Amid a funding standoff that went into overtime on Friday, Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., is stressing the need for lawmakers to end travel delays and support the country’s weakened airport security as he warns that security preparations are “significantly behind” for the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup.
“I could never justify this from the start, but here we are day 39, 40? It’s like, how long are you gonna continue that?” Fetterman told Fox News Digital this past week.
Fetterman raised concerns that the shutdown — the second for TSA workers in just three months — has wreaked havoc on the country’s transportation security workforce that won’t be easily undone ahead of high-profile U.S.-based events.
“Preparations are significantly behind and now we’re 77 days out and this is still shut down,” Fetterman said, referring to the World Cup. “And you have millions of people from abroad coming and millions of Americans joining these two.”
SCHUMER GAMBIT FAILS AS DHS SHUTDOWN HITS 36 DAYS AND AIRPORT LINES GROW

Fetterman’s comments come as the Senate advanced most of the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) funding in the early hours of Friday morning. Their bill looked to supply the many agencies that operate under DHS, such as the Secret Service, the Coast Guard, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), TSA and more, but exclude funding for Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
Funding for DHS first ran dry on Feb. 14, when Democrats made their support for the agency conditional on a set of reforms to rein in President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown.
The Senate’s bill didn’t include any of the Democrats’ reforms, but also didn’t include funding for ICE, either. That proposal ran into fierce resistance in the House of Representatives, where even House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., blasted the attempted resolution.
“This gambit that was done last night is a joke. I’m quite convinced — it can’t be that every Senate Republican read the language of this bill. It’s pretty alarming. It says, quote: ‘The contents printed under the headings of this bill: U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement and border security operations… an amount specified in the final bill shall be zero,’” Johnson said, reading from the Senate bill’s text.
“We’re not doing that,” Johnson added.
The agency has, however, already received $75 billion through Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act in July 2025 — enough to fund the agency’s operations at least through 2026. House Republicans stressed that it’s unclear if those funds can legally be used to fund all of ICE’s operations.
Instead of passing the Senate’s plan, the House advanced its own package late Friday night, which would extend DHS funding at current levels for two months, buying more time for lawmakers to continue negotiations over ICE.
The House version is likely dead on arrival in the Senate.

As lawmakers continue the back-and-forth over the ICE funding standoff, spokespersons from DHS also echoed Fetterman’s calls to restore travel operations, slamming the compounding effects of the repeated shutdowns.
“Now, 366 TSA officers have left the force. Because of this DHS shutdown, Americans are facing HOURS long waits at airports across the country. Democrats must reopen DHS now,” Lauren Bis, a spokesperson for the agency said in a press release.
Although Trump signed an executive order on Friday that looks to fund the salaries of TSA workers, the agency also noted that even with the resolution to the shutdown looking hopeful, the country’s travel security would take time to recover.
“TSA does not have the luxury of time. The FIFA World Cup is kicking off on June 11 – less than three months away. We are anticipating a significant influx in passenger volume as fans travel through our airports to see the games,” DHS said in a press release.
“Even if TSA were to hire new officers upon the conclusion of the DHS shutdown, those officers would not be able to work on the checkpoint until well after the World Cup has concluded.”

Fetterman urged members of his own party to focus on the country’s outstanding travel needs instead of continuing to pursue their demands.
“[It’s] just getting harder and harder to justify extending this shutdown,” Fetterman said.
