No declaration card, no secondary, no nada. one guy stamped my passport, didn't say a word. No one in the luggage area. It was great.

TSA says absences rise because airport screeners can't afford to work unpaidThe Transportation Security Administration says unpaid airport screeners have not been showing up to work because of financial reasons. TSA's ranks of 51,000 have been deemed essential and have been ordered to work without paychecks in the shutdown. DUH! Looks like Chuck & Nancy need to fund a Wall. If they don't show up for work, do they then not get back pay for the days they didn't show up? That would seem most logical, it would be back pay they didn't earn. Unless they are out doing other work for more pay, it doesn't seem very smart or logical to not show up?
