The President of the United States, Donald Trump, made official this Friday the decree ordering payment for agents of the Transportation Security Administration (in English, TSA) after officers were left to work without pay for weeks amid the partial government shutdown and the Democratic boycott of the Department of Security National.
For this reason, Americans have been affected by longer wait times at security checkpoints at major airports. The memorandum signed by Trump a few hours ago also states that officers will receive retroactive payment, considering that the partial government shutdown has been in effect since mid-February
“As the Democrat-induced shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) continues to enter its sixth week, the U.S. air travel system has reached its breaking point,” reads the presidential memorandum addressed to DHS.
