The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is on the brink of a shutdown as lawmakers have left Washington without reaching a funding agreement before the deadline. With differing viewpoints on Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) reforms, congressional discussions have stalled, leaving the agency poised to run out of money. Travelers have been warned to expect potential delays and disruptions, particularly at airports, due to anticipated impacts on the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). As Congress heads away from negotiations, officials express concern that this government shutdown could persist indefinitely.
