[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Found this article that has an overview of how each agency is impacted: https://federalnewsnetwork.com/government-shutdown/2026/02/how-a-dhs-shutdown-affects-different-components-and-employees/?readmore=1

Basically, TSA is overall most negatively impacted. 90% of DHS is excepted, and officers, military, and FEMA COREs will likely have some level of funding.

I know it’s easier said than done but TSA should strike. And Pilots should refuse to fly unless TSA is funded.

Trump can pay them with all his winning from the tariffs! [/quote]

That would be great, but aren't most pilots commercial? So they might feel less solidaritythank Air Traffic Controllers? Anyway, DHS has the funds and can surely move them around to pay them. Although that would take pressure off Dems… maybe there are ways the states can try to support them the way they supported SNAP recipients if DHS doesn't.

Realistically, FEMA won't be a huge factor for a bit since many employees are CORE and have some Stafford Act funding. The article did note a major disaster declaration would still be a problem though. “Danger season” doesn't start until May, but we're not out of the clear for random ice storms or tornado season starting in March.
