Delta Airlines CEO Ed Bastian ripped Congress for creating a “mess” and leaving travelers with hours-long security wait times and TSA agents unpaid for more than a month, saying the airline is now suspending travel perks for members of Congress as a result. Bastian says, “they can stand in line just like everybody else.” Former NH Governor and now President and CEO of Airlines for America, Chris Sununu checked in to discuss!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After nearly a month without pay due to the partial government shutdown, TSA agents received their first paycheck Monday after President Trump signed an executive order late last week instructing the Department of Homeland Security to pay TSA officers immediately. According to the DHS, nearly 500 of the agency's nearly 50,000 officers have quit since the shutdown started, which led to long security lines across the country. The president’s order comes during a busy travel time with Spring breaks for many schools and colleges in addition to this week’s Passover and Easter holidays.
