TSA workers expected to get back pay soon

Frustrating security lines dwindled at U.S. airports on Monday, removing some of the worst bottlenecks as Transportation Safety Administration officers began receiving backpay for working during the government shutdown. What was a four-hour checkpoint line at Houston's George Bush Intercontinental Airport turned into a wait of 10 minutes or less on Monday. Wait times pushed beyond two hours at New York's LaGuardia Airport Monday morning, but that appeared to be an exception, with normal waits at previous trouble spots such as Baltimore-Washington International Airport and Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. https://www.wthr.com/article/news/nation-world/tsa-workers-get-paid-airports-shutdown/507-3a9e1c94-8f92-48e2-af34-70c493dd69b8
