Air travelers passing through checkpoints have been raising the alarm about a controversial video. It shows Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem addressing the ongoing government shutdown.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark — The Little Rock community has come together to help TSA employees continue to work through the government shutdown. At Clinton National Airport, TSA agents play a critical role. They make sure you make it to your flight safe and sound.

A union leader says he wouldn’t be surprised if TSA agents start calling out. “We’re being ripped off, and I’m sick and tired of us being pawns.”

The program, available to PreCheck members flying United, Delta, American, or Alaska Airlines, aims to cut wait times and streamline security ahead of the busy holiday season.
