| TSA official warns smaller airports could shut down amid DHS funding crisis |
| 2026-03-18 |
| [FoxNews] Acting Deputy Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Administrator Adam Stahl warned Tuesday that smaller airports might be forced to shut down if more security workers call out or quit amid an ongoing Department of Homeland Security (DHS) shutdown that has withheld their paychecks. Stahl said the TSA has already depleted its National Deployment Office of all available workers, spreading its resources as thin as they’ll go. "So at this point, we're fully stretched," he told "Fox & Friends." "Frankly, there's not much else we can do. As the weeks continue, if this continues, it's not hyperbole to suggest that we may have to quite literally shut down airports, particularly smaller ones, if callout rates go up... A lot of those officers can't afford to come in."
