The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has been in a state of shutdown since February, primarily due to Democratic concerns regarding its immigration enforcement policies.
This prolonged shutdown has led to notable delays at Transportation Security Administration (TSA) checkpoints, raising operational concerns for air travel and security.
In response, the Senate and the White House are reportedly moving towards a consensus aimed at resolving the shutdown, which could restore normal operations at DHS and alleviate TSA delays.
