U.S. airports could face a new wave of long security lines as early as May after the nation's homeland security chief said on Tuesday that he will run ‌out of money to pay for 50,000 workers due to a partial government shutdown.

President Donald Trump in late March directed DHS to use emergency funds to pay Transportation Security Administration workers who had gone without paychecks for about six weeks, causing disruptions at U.S. airports. Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin told "Fox and Friends" on Tuesday that the money would run out ⁠by early May.

Most Americans want to defund ICE. The DHS was defunded and chose which branch to pay.
