TSA PreCheck Continues As Global Entry Shut Down During Funding Fight

If you have travel plans, other than the fact that the blizzard up north may very well affect many flights right now, there is some good news. The Department of Homeland Security says TSA PreCheck will remain operational during the partial government shutdown that began February 14th, reversing an earlier plan to suspend the program. The dispute centers on Democrats demanding changes to immigration operations tied to President Donald Trump’s deportation policy. Officials say airport security lines have remained mostly manageable so far, though delays are expected to worsen as the winter storm disrupts travel along the East Coast.
