TSA

The US Department of Homeland Security has deployed Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers to several major airports as of March 23, 2026, amid a Transportation Security Administration (TSA) staffing crisis caused by a partial government shutdown. ICE personnel are providing support at hubs like Atlanta (ATL), New York (JFK), and Newark (EWR), but not at Orlando International Airport (MCO). Travelers to Disney parks face extended wait times at understaffed checkpoints.
