Travelers weighed in on President Donald Trump\u2019s decision to deploy Immigration and Customs<\/a> Enforcement (ICE) agents to airports across the country on Monday as the Transportation Security Administration’s (TSA) workforce struggles to continue operations amid a government shutdown that\u2019s nearing the 40-day mark.<\/p>\n

Some travelers blasted the idea, fearing that the training received by ICE agents<\/a> wouldn\u2019t translate to airport security.<\/p>\n

“I think it\u2019s ludicrous,” one observer told Fox News Digital. “First of all, they\u2019re not trained for screening. Secondly, the last thing we need in airports is armed people.”<\/p>\n

Others believe the solution is better than nothing.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m a traveler \u2014 anything that helps people get through the airports and have a good experience and keeps us safe is great,” a second person said.<\/p>\n

Like the rest of the agencies that operate under the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), funding for TSA ran dry<\/a> on Feb. 14 over Democrat-led demands to reform ICE \u2014 the agency at the heart of Trump\u2019s immigration crackdown.<\/p>\n

In the wake of two deadly encounters with protesters, Democrats have conditioned their support<\/a> for DHS funding on a slew of procedural guardrails. Those include a ban on masks for ICE agents, stiffer warrant requirements for apprehending suspects in public and a ban on roaming patrols, among other reforms.<\/p>\n

Republicans have rebuffed the demands, arguing they would handcuff President Donald Trump’s<\/a> immigration enforcement goals. Republicans need at least seven Democrats to reach the 60-vote <\/a>threshold <\/a>to break a filibuster in the Senate, where they hold just 53 seats.<\/p>\n

As the standoff reaches the 40-day mark, TSA agents<\/a> have struggled<\/a> to continue working while covering costs. According to DHS, more than 366 TSA officials have left the force.<\/a><\/p>\n

“Transportation Security Officers and other Transportation Security Administration roles critical to national safety at our nation\u2019s airports are going without pay for the third time in nearly six months,” DHS said in a statement.<\/p>\n

“Because of this DHS shutdown, Americans are facing hours-long waits at airports across the country. Democrats must reopen DHS now.”<\/p>\n

TSA agents missed their<\/a> first full paychecks on March 13.<\/p>\n

Some travelers warned that the public might not receive ICE well in airports due to their role in Trump\u2019s immigration crackdown.<\/p>\n

“I don’t think it’s a good idea<\/a> just because of the optics,” another traveler said.<\/p>\n

“I think that ICE agents \u2014 what’s happened has kind of wrecked their reputation in communities all over the United States, and so I don’t think it is a good idea. I think it will make people nervous. They could be coming here to do really good things, but they’ve already set that reputation, and I think that’s going to stick with them and people aren’t going to trust them.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
