On Friday, March 27, 2026, Congressman Eric Sorensen (IL-17) released the following statement, slamming House Republicans’ refusal to fund TSA, FEMA, and the U. S. Coast Guard.
“Today should have been payday for TSA agents who have gone over 40 days since their last paycheck. Instead, House Republicans refused to pass a bipartisan solution. Instead, [they] continue to play games while TSA workers, the U. S. Coast Guard, and communities in need of disaster relief get screwed!
“I will always fight for a Department of Homeland Security that works for the American people and keeps our Country safe,” Sorensen said.”
