TSA officer describes low morale, struggles since DHS funding fight

A TSA officer says she and other agency employees feel forgotten during the partial government shutdown, with morale at an all‑time low.

“We feel like we are being completely overlooked,” Jill DeJanovich told NewsNation’s Anna Kooiman. “Every other agency has been funded except for the Department of Homeland Security. We’re the only ones being singled out three times in a row. We feel like no one’s paying attention to what we’re going through.”

DeJanovich, who works at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, said she had to call out of work in the early weeks of the shutdown because she couldn’t afford gas to get there. (wtf?)

“We just cannot afford to keep coming to work with no money,” she said.

Since then, she said she and other TSA employees have received gas cards through community outreach efforts, which have helped them commute. She added that many are still financially recovering from the last shutdown in October. (shameful)

“Our creditors aren’t as willing to work with us as they were before,” DeJanovich said. “So this time we are literally out on our own, trying to just figure it out.”

I feel so bad for her. I read about govt employees (I think that was also the TSA) working two jobs last October.
