ICE agents depart Pittsburgh International Airport

Airports Recover From Long Lines As TSA Agents Receive First Paychecks
BALTIMORE, MARYLAND - MARCH 30: ICE agents patrol around BWI Airport on March 30, 2026 in Baltimore, Maryland. Airports around the country began recovering from long lines as TSA agents began receiving their first paychecks after about 61,000 TSA employees had been working without pay since a partial government shutdown began on February 14.

ICE agents are no longer conducting security checks at Pittsburgh International.

The Airport Authority confirms for KDKA Radio the agents have left.

They were sent to multiple airports last month by the President to help ease the congestion at security checkpoints during a partial government shutdown.

TSA agents were ordered to continue working, but were not paid during the shutdown.

That led to mass call offs around the country, but Pittsburgh International was not deeply affected.

Wait times during most days of the shutdown were minimal at Pittsburgh International.
