Senator urges probe into US airport video blaming Democrats for government shutdown
ReutersOct 15, 2025 3:50 PM
WASHINGTON, Oct 15 (Reuters) - The top Democrat on the Senate Commerce Committee on Wednesday called for an investigation into a Trump administration video airing at some airports that blames Democrats in Congress for an ongoing government shutdown and its impact on aviation.
Senator Maria Cantwell asked the Office of Special Counsel to investigate the video featuring Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, saying it appears to violate a law known as the Hatch Act, which is meant to insulate government services from partisan politics. A number of major airports have opted not to air the video over the partisan nature of the video, Cantwell noted.
