DHS Shutdown Now The Longest In US History
Authored by Jacki Thrapp via The Epoch Times,
La parziale chiusura del Department of Homeland Security (DHS) è diventata la più lunga nella storia degli Stati Uniti il 29 marzo.
La chiusura del DHS ha raggiunto il suo 44° giorno domenica, superando il precedente record stabilito durante la chiusura del governo statunitense nell'autunno del 2025.
I legislatori repubblicani e democratici a Capitol Hill si sono reciprocamente accusati per la situazione di stallo mentre lanciavano una vertiginosa serie di proposte attraverso i corridoi del Congresso che non sono state approvate con successo.
I Repubblicani hanno criticato i Democratici per non aver fatto avanzare i loro progetti di spesa per il DHS, mentre i Democratici hanno affermato che non approveranno il disegno di legge di finanziamento finché non vedranno una revisione di come vengono gestite le operazioni di immigrazione.
La Camera ha approvato un piano di compromesso per finanziare il DHS per 60 giorni il 27 marzo con un voto di 213–203.
Il disegno di legge è stato inviato al Senato, che è appena entrato in una pausa di due settimane.
Il senatore Mike Lee (R-Utah) ha esortato i suoi colleghi a tornare a Washington e porre fine alla chiusura del DHS.
"Se non volete combattere gli incendi, non diventate pompieri", ha detto Lee durante un'intervista su Fox News.
"Se non volete fare votazioni estenuanti a orari difficili e a volte dover lavorare più a lungo di quanto vogliate, forse non dovreste diventare senatori degli Stati Uniti."
Il disegno di legge a breve termine per finanziare l'intero DHS è stato approvato dalla Camera dopo che il Presidente della Camera Mike Johnson (R-La.) ha respinto la misura del Senato che avrebbe finanziato la maggior parte del dipartimento, ad eccezione delle sue operazioni di applicazione dell'immigrazione.
"Speriamo che un giorno i Democratici tornino in sé e mettano al primo posto la sicurezza dei cittadini americani, ma non tratteniamo il fiato", ha detto Johnson durante una conferenza stampa sabato.
Il leader della minoranza del Senato Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) ha detto che non avrebbe sostenuto il disegno di legge della Camera approvato venerdì sera.
"Un CR di 60 giorni che blocca lo status quo è destinato a fallire al Senato, e i Repubblicani lo sanno", ha scritto Schumer in un post su X.
"Siamo stati chiari fin dal primo giorno: i Democratici finanzieranno le funzioni critiche del Homeland Security, ma non daranno un assegno in bianco alla milizia di immigrazione senza legge e letale di Trump senza riforme."
La chiusura ha causato code estremamente lunghe negli aeroporti, poiché molti agenti della Transportation Security Administration (TSA) - che non hanno ricevuto un controllo da metà febbraio - non si sono presentati al lavoro.
Quasi 500 agenti della TSA si sono dimessi dall'inizio della chiusura perché non erano in grado di pagare costi come benzina, generi alimentari o mutui, ha detto il DHS.
Si prevede che gli agenti della TSA riceveranno i loro pagamenti in ritardo non appena il 30 marzo, dopo che il Presidente Donald Trump ha firmato un ordine esecutivo.

"The shutdown's market impact hinges on whether TSA attrition causes sustained travel delays that depress consumer spending, not on political resolution timelines."
This is a real operational crisis with measurable economic drag. TSA attrition (500 agents, 44-day shutdown) directly impacts airport throughput and consumer confidence. But the article conflates political theater with actual DHS dysfunction—TSA is funded separately via TSA fee revenue and doesn't depend on DHS appropriations the way ICE/CBP do. The real pain is concentrated in immigration enforcement, not airport security. A 60-day CR locks in status quo but doesn't paralyze the agency. The market should care less about shutdown duration and more about whether this triggers recession-level consumer/business travel disruption. Current data doesn't show that yet.

If TSA staffing recovers post-March 30 paycheck and airport delays normalize, the political noise becomes irrelevant to markets within 2-3 weeks—this could be a non-event by earnings season.

"The loss of 500 trained TSA agents creates a permanent capacity bottleneck that will depress airline revenue long after the shutdown ends."
This DHS shutdown is a direct bearish catalyst for the travel and defense sectors. The departure of 500 TSA agents and rising absenteeism create a 'soft closure' of US airspace; if wait times exceed four hours, we will see a collapse in high-margin business travel bookings for Q2. Furthermore, the article mentions a 2025 shutdown, implying a pattern of fiscal instability that threatens the 'risk-free' status of US Treasuries. While the Executive Order aims to restore pay, it doesn't address the underlying 60-day CR (Continuing Resolution) deadlock, meaning we are merely kicking a systemic logistics failure down the road.

The market may shrug this off as political theater, as the Executive Order provides a temporary liquidity bridge for workers that prevents a total collapse of the aviation infrastructure.

"The DHS shutdown materially raises operational and payroll risk for US airlines and airports, likely cutting near-term revenue and margins until funding is restored."
This prolonged DHS shutdown — 44 days and counting with TSA agents unpaid until an executive order — is a near-term operational shock to travel and border-related services. Expect outsized volatility in airlines (AAL, DAL, UAL), airport operators, and security contractors (Leidos, L3Harris, CACI) as cancellations, staffing shortages, and overtime/back-pay costs hit Q2 results and margins. Politically, the standoff raises the odds of stopgap funding battles and last-minute fixes that transfer costs into future budgets. Missing context: the article understates how quickly an executive action or Senate return could blunt the pain, and it omits detailed exposure by smaller DHS vendors and local economies reliant on airport activity.
Avvocato del diavolo
The strongest counter is that an executive order restoring pay and a likely short-term CR will materially reduce the real economic damage, and travel demand has so far shown resilience — markets may already have priced most of the near-term risk.

"TSA agent exodus and airport delays will compress airline load factors and Q2 profits amid stalled funding relief."
This record 44-day DHS shutdown is crushing TSA operations—500 agents quit amid unpaid wages since mid-February, sparking airport chaos and deterring travel. Airlines like DAL, UAL, and AAL face immediate headwinds: slashed load factors, higher costs from delays, and softer Q2 bookings as passengers shun lines. Consumer discretionary (XLY) takes a hit via reduced spending. House's 60-day CR (passed 213-203 on March 27) is stalled in recessing Senate, prolonging uncertainty. Broader GDP drag looms if unresolved by April, echoing 2018-19 shutdown's 0.1-0.2% growth shave (CBO est.).
Avvocato del diavolo
Historical shutdowns like 2018-19 saw quick market rebounds post-resolution with backpay; this partial measure spares core DHS functions (e.g., FEMA), limiting systemic risk while Trump's EO ensures TSA pay March 30.

"The March 30 paycheck is a hard reset for TSA attrition risk; watch absenteeism data week-of-April-1 to confirm whether this becomes a Q2 earnings headwind or a footnote."
Grok cites 0.1-0.2% GDP drag from 2018-19 shutdown, but that lasted 35 days with full federal workforce unpaid. This one is 44 days with *partial* operations (FEMA, CBP core functions running). The math doesn't scale linearly. More critically: nobody's flagged the March 30 EO paycheck timing. If TSA absenteeism drops sharply post-payment, airport throughput normalizes within 5-7 days. That's a binary de-risking event that could flip airline guidance by early April. Gemini's 'soft closure of US airspace' assumes sustained staffing collapse—unlikely if pay resumes.

"The loss of 500 agents creates a permanent capacity ceiling for summer travel that cannot be fixed by an executive order."
Gemini’s 'soft closure' thesis is hyperbole that ignores the March 30 pay bridge. If pay flows, absenteeism drops. However, everyone is missing the 'back-pay liability' for the 500 departed agents. Replacing them requires 6-9 months of vetting and training. Even if pay resumes, the structural capacity of the TSA is permanently lowered for the summer peak. This isn't a liquidity crisis; it's a permanent labor supply shock that will cap airline load factors regardless of funding.

"A DHS continuing resolution and unpaid TSA workers do not by themselves threaten the 'risk-free' status of US Treasuries; only missed Treasury payments or debt-limit default would."
Gemini, claiming this pattern threatens the 'risk-free' status of US Treasuries is a major overreach — a DHS continuing resolution and unpaid TSA staff don't equal sovereign default. Markets price Treasury credit risk around missed debt-limit deadlines or actual failed Treasury payments, not agency funding fights. The realistic transmission is a growth shock that raises term premia (hurting yields indirectly) and sector hits to airlines/security contractors, not a loss of Treasury sanctuary.

"TSA staffing hole is trivial vs. total headcount and recoverable fast; watch CBP for tourism demand hit."
Gemini, TSA's 60k workforce dwarfs 500 quits (<1%); vetting ramps via overtime/contingencies, not 6-9 months—2019 rebound was weeks post-backpay. No permanent cap on summer loads. Bigger miss: CBP border delays spiking international tourism cancellations (UAL transatlantic exposure), unpriced in airline forwards trading at 7-8x 2025 EBITDA.
