The TSA is made up of mostly black and hispanic workers, the most of any DHS agency. I first supported them not passing funding due to ICE, but it's time to find a way to get to a YES so they can get paid. There was a bill today that paid for TSA but the Dems counter offered and that sunk it. They still wouldn't support it. I want it passed to put the pressure back on Trump. He will not veto a damn thing. He's TACO. This is hurting Dem voters, most likely. They need to figure out another way to get their ICE demands met (that will never happen anyway) without hurting the mostly minority workers in the government. We are letting perfect be the enemy to good. THIS NEEDS TO END.

They don't make much money anyway. This is whole thing has gotten out of hand! No one cares cause they're not struggling. The white liberals who keep telling the Dems not to cave are not working in airports and have family that do. This is a humanitarian thing. There are times when you have to deal and times you don't. This has real life consequences.

The president has refused all offers to fund agencies other than TSA, and the Dems have offered multiple times. In addition, TSF is trying to shove the SAVE act down our throats at the same time. The Dems need to hold fast. Point your fingers in the right direction.
