While the impact at Austin Straubel Airport in Green Bay was not the same as what was seen at larger airports in Chicago, Atlanta and New York City, local government leaders and businesses ensured that Transportation Security Administration officials felt appreciated.

The more than 40-day partial government shutdown could conclude as soon as this weekend after the U.S. Senate approved a new Department of Homeland Security funding deal that would pay members of the TSA, U.S. Coast Guard, FEMA and other employees under its purview.

Democrats and Republicans have pointed fingers at each other for causing thousands of employees to go without pay and for forcing long lines at the nation’s airports.

Hours before the deal was announced, President Donald Trump said he would sign an executive order ensuring that TSA agents would be paid after going more than a month without a paycheck.

In Green Bay, Airport Director Marty Piette says being a smaller airport helped them not only keep lines moving but also allowed the community to show appreciation for local TSA agents.

Piette says that while wait times have been relatively normal at Austin Straubel Airport, he advises travelers to allow extra time at larger airports that have been more affected during the partial government shutdown.

The House of Representatives and President Trump still need to sign off on the deal approved by the Senate on Thursday.
