Airports across the country have reported long lines and delays, raising concerns ahead of the busy spring-break travel season.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"612\" data-end=\"893\">Despite intense negotiations, lawmakers were unable to bridge differences over immigration enforcement policies. A Senate proposal to restore most DHS funding gained unanimous support but excluded funding for <span class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"><span class=\"whitespace-normal\">Immigration and Customs Enforcement<\/span><\/span>, drawing backing from Democrats.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"895\" data-end=\"1193\">However, Republicans in the House rejected that plan and instead passed a temporary funding bill that included immigration enforcement\u2014something Democrats have firmly opposed.

Thousands of TSA officers have called in sick or resigned, with absentee rates rising sharply at major airports.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1983\" data-end=\"2211\">Officials warn that disruptions could worsen over the weekend if payment issues are not resolved.
