T.S.A. Says PreCheck Will Remain Operational at Airports
The Department of Homeland Security had said earlier on Sunday that it would suspend the priority airport security program, about a week after its funding lapsed because of the partial government shutdown.

The Department of Homeland Security said on Sunday that T.S.A. PreCheck, a program that allows travelers to move through airport security more quickly, would remain available, hours after announcing that it would be suspended.

“At this time, TSA PreCheck remains operational with no change for the traveling public,” the Transportation Security Administration said in a statement on Sunday. The agency added that it would evaluate the situation “as staffing constraints arise” because of the continuing shutdown, and adjust operations accordingly.

D.H.S. had said in an earlier statement that it would pause its T.S.A. PreCheck and Global Entry programs starting on Sunday at 6 a.m. Eastern to “refocus department personnel on the majority of travelers.”

The department, which oversees T.S.A., also said it would suspend all courtesy and family police escorts at airports for members of Congress. The Global Entry program remained suspended, according to the D.H.S. website.
