AI Summary
Summarized by AI from the source belowPresident Donald Trump signed an executive order to authorize payments to Transportation Security Administration (TSA) employees after Congress failed to agree on Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding, which has entered a 44th day of shutdown. The House passed a bill to fund DHS through May 22 with a vote of 213-203, though Senate leaders indicated the proposal would not pass. TSA workers may begin receiving paychecks by Monday as a result of the executive action, which aims to alleviate long security lines at airports. The continued impasse in Congress poses ongoing challenges for federal employees and air travel efficiency.
