Federal immigration agents on March 23 deployed to airports as travelers faced security delays due to a lack of new funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents went to the international airport in Atlanta and airports in New York City, among others, to help Transportation Security Administration (TSA) personnel deal with long lines amid a showdown over funding for DHS.
