This resolution seeks to honor Transportation Security Officers (TSOs) for their unwavering dedication and sacrifice during federal government shutdowns, specifically referencing a recent partial shutdown from February to April 2026 and a previous one in November 2025. It highlights the severe financial strain placed upon TSOs who continued to report to work without pay, often forcing them to choose between basic necessities or seek second jobs. The resolution emphasizes the critical importance of TSOs' work in safeguarding the nation's airports and protecting travelers, asserting that their professionalism is indispensable to national security. Furthermore, it declares that requiring federal employees to work without compensation is unjust, immoral, and inconsistent with principles of fairness. The House of Representatives expresses solidarity with TSOs and commits to ending the practice of unjustly withholding their compensation during future government shutdowns.
