AIRPORT CHAOS

Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 55 (Tuesday, March 24, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 55 (Tuesday, March 24, 2026)] [House] [Page H2667] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] {time} 1910 AIRPORT CHAOS (Ms. DEXTER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.) Ms. DEXTER. Mr. Speaker, people just want their time in airports to be uneventful. They want to get through security, get to their gate, get to their home and their families, or onto their travels without chaos, delays, or confusion. The White House is making that impossible. Rather than working with Democrats to fund TSA, Trump is sending ICE agents into our country's airports. ICE agents are not trained in aviation security or customer service. They are not able to help TSA agents, who have been working without pay for 47 percent of this fiscal year. ICE agents create fear, confusion, and certainly more chaos in our airports. There is a better way. Republicans should focus on sending paychecks, not ICE, to our airports, and let Americans get where they are going safely and uneventfully. Stay loud. ____________________
