00:05entirely if the government shutdown continues for two more weeks. Controllers are warning that the

00:16just to get by. Despite the lack of pay, workers are still showing up, even handing out leaflets
00:22at airports to pressure lawmakers into ending the shutdown. The situation echoes the 2018 shutdown
00:28when a shortage of air traffic controllers disrupted major airports and helped bring an impasse to an end.
