Thanks to Vasquez’s Shutdown, TSA Workers Go Without Pay & the Skies are Less

March 27, 2026

Out of touch Democrat Gabe Vasquez callously voted to shut down the Department of Homeland Security, and now? TSA workers are forced to work without pay, and the skies are less safe.

As New Mexico families try to travel for Spring break, their plans are being grounded by longer security lines, flight delays, and cancellations.

Instead of keeping the skies safe and hardworking Americans paid, Vasquez is playing politics.

“Out of touch Democrat Gabe Vasquez is playing politics with lives and paychecks, and it’s unacceptable. Vasquez is in Congress to serve New Mexico families, not make their lives more difficult and less safe.” – NRCC Spokesman Reilly Richardson
