The DHS funding lapse that began February 14, 2026, has become the longest government shutdown in U.S. history at 45 days and counting. While a presidential memorandum allowed TSA's 61,000 workers to receive back pay starting March 30 — funded by repurposing $10 billion from the "One Big Beautiful Bill" Act — tens of thousands of other DHS employees at FEMA, CISA, and the Coast Guard remain unpaid, and the underlying congressional standoff over immigration enforcement shows no sign of resolution.
