The effects of the ongoing government shutdown are becoming increasingly visible at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, with Transportation Security Administration officers working without pay. Approximately 100 TSA officers are calling out each day due to financial difficulties, many of whom cannot afford to attend work. Former President Donald Trump has announced he plans to order the Department of Homeland Security to immediately pay TSA agents, calling the situation an "emergency". The current shutdown is now approaching the length of the longest in U.S. history. The union reports that approximately 400 employees have left the agency since the shutdown began.
