TSA is not air traffic control. That's Department of Transportation.

Also I totally support them in this initiative. No one should work without pay.

Weird to be at all 3 airports


I think it’s the center that runs those airports not at each airport.

Makes sense. She said ATC had to evacuate.

Does anyone know what could be happening at DCA? My sister's flight circled repeatedly and then had to divert to Norfolk. They were told all air space over the Potomac was shut down.

Too windy? Something else?
