Will Congress fix TSA mess and fund DHS before going on break?

The Senate has approved most Department of Homeland Security funding overnight, passing the decision to the House before a congressional recess. The measure includes provisions addressing TSA operations and broader DHS priorities that have stalled in recent negotiations. House approval is now critical to avoid a lapse in DHS funding or disruptions to airport security operations before lawmakers leave town. The timing is tight, as Congress has limited days remaining before its scheduled break, adding pressure to resolve outstanding disagreements between chambers. The outcome will determine whether the government can sustain full TSA staffing and DHS functions or face potential service interruptions.
