US President Donald Trump has threatened to deploy agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to provide security at airports without a deal being reached. This has resulted in long queues at airports and many staff from the TSA working without pay for over a month. The threat comes as part of a broader effort to control the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
