“About 95 percent of T.S.A.’s roughly 60,000 employees are required to work through a shutdown without being paid, Ha Nguyen McNeill, the agency’s acting administrator, told lawmakers this week. Most FEMA employees are expected to continue working without pay, and agency leaders have said that its disaster relief fund has enough money for its current and anticipated emergency response activities. Still, the fund would be strained if a catastrophic disaster were to occur during the shutdown, according to agency leaders. The Coast Guard’s uniformed personnel must also keep coming to work, and most are not expected to be paid until after the shutdown is over.”

“Not to mention that it is not great optics for members of Congress to race for international flights as Transportation Security Administration workers are among those likely to work without pay if the shutdown — the third in a matter of months — drags on.The stalled funding measure also covers the Federal Emergency Management Agency and Coast Guard, among other entities.”

“The Department is vast and oversees many agencies, including the Transportation Security Administration, the Coast Guard and the Federal Emergency Management Agency.Its agencies involved in immigration enforcement — Customs and Border Protection, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement — have been under heavy scrutiny amid the Trump administration’s crackdown, particularly following the fatal shootings of two U.S. citizens in Minneapolis last month.AdvertisementSKIP ADVERTISEMENTWhat is the shutdown about?Democrats, who have few levers to pull with Republicans controlling the House, Senate and White House, have sought to force changes at the department by withholding their votes for funding until Republicans agree to a set of policy changes. The 100-member Senate requires 60 votes to overcome a filibuster, so a funding bill cannot pass without some Democratic support.Senator Chuck Schumer, Democrat of New York and the minority leader, labeled ICE a “rogue agency” on Sunday as he called on Republicans to agree to the limits that Democrats have called for.“Why don’t we rein them in? That’s what the American people are asking Republicans,” he told CNN’s “State of the Union.” “And that’s why they’re going to have to go along with us.”What are the Democrats seeking?Democrats have pushed for a range of new restrictions on immigration agents, including requiring them to obtain warrants from judges to make arrests in homes, mandating that they show visible identification, and prohibiting face coverings while they are engaged in immigration enforcement operations. Democrats have also pushed for a stricter use-of-force policy and new training standards, as well as an end to roving patrols.Republicans have objected to many of the demands, which they consider overly burdensome, and maintain that any new guardrails on federal agents should also come with restrictions on so-called sanctuary cities, or jurisdictions with policies that limit cooperation with immigration agents.AdvertisementSKIP ADVERTISEMENTTom Homan, the White House border czar, who took over the on-the-ground operations in Minnesota before announcing last week that the surge of agents to the state was ending, defended the use of masks on Sunday.“I don’t like the masks either, but because threats against ICE officers are up over 1,500 percent — actual assaults — and threats are up over 8,000 percent, these men and women have to protect themselves,” Mr. Homan said in an interview on CBS’s “Face the Nation.”What effect will the shutdown have on agencies?Their work will not grind to a halt. Department leaders have said that essential missions and functions will continue.ICE and C.B.P. are expected to be scarcely affected, with officers continuing to work. Nearly 85 percent of FEMA employees are expected to work without pay through the shutdown, and similar numbers are expected to continue working at other agencies.What about travelers?About 95 percent of the T.S.A.’s roughly 60,000 employees are required to work during a shutdown.”
