During Donald J. Trump\u2019s first term as president, roughly 800,000 of the federal government\u2019s more than two million employees were sidelined for over a month starting in December 2018. The economy <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbo.gov\/publication\/54937\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">took a major hit<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">As lawmakers raced to secure a funding deal that would keep the government open beyond Friday\u2019s midnight deadline, Washington and its large federal work force braced for a potentially disruptive holiday season. Travel would still likely proceed without major interruptions, as Transportation Security Administration employees and air traffic controllers would largely continue to work. But like during the late 2018 shutdown, travelers could face delays at airports.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Carter Langston, a Transportation Security Administration spokesman, said on Thursday that 59,000 of the agency\u2019s 62,000 employees were considered \u201cessential,\u201d meaning they would continue working without pay during a shutdown. The agency expects to screen 40 million passengers over the holidays.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cWhile our personnel have prepared to handle high volumes of travelers and ensure safe travel, an extended shutdown could mean longer wait times at airports,\u201d Mr. Langston said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">A shutdown would cause enormous strain on furloughed government workers and those required to still work, most of whom would do so without pay until funding is restored.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"css-13o6u42 eoo0vm40\" id=\"link-53111697\">How does the federal government prepare?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The White House\u2019s Office of Management and Budget maintains <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/omb\/information-for-agencies\/agency-contingency-plans\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">a collection of plans<\/a> that federal agencies have developed in the event of a shutdown.
