after several major airports in the united states were hit by major delays as a direct result of the shutdown the federal aviation administration says departures from new york la guardia philadelphia newark were all delayed many airport workers who've have gone two months now without pay and they've reportedly started calling in sick. so in a moment we'll be speaking to heidi jo castro ronald reagan airport in arlington virginia first more on the shutdown deal possible deal we're hearing from alan fischer in washington and i suppose allan we're waiting to hear if the delays and disruption we've been speaking about over the past few hours has translated into some sort of temporary agreement for the time being. well i suspect the pressure really started to build on thursday on the senate floor when you remember there were competing bills the republicans wanted to pass a bill which would reopen the government and give donald trump five point seven billion dollars for his border wall the democrats decided that they would put forward their own motion to reopen the government with new money for the border wall both motions were defeated they didn't get to sixty votes as you

around the corner but not before some serious turbulence at the nation's airports new york's la guardia airport faced major flight delays friday as air traffic control struggled with staff shortages linked to the shutdown. that triggered renewed pressure for politicians to end the standoff at the nearby newark new jersey and philadelphia airports were also facing delays as a result around one hundred fifty eight outbound flights and one hundred fifty four inbound flights were facing delays but only a small handful were canceled that according to flight tracker flight aware. let's go down now to new york where our correspondent yens court is standing by yet there was a lot of talk about the economic toll that could have been brought by this shutdown are investors optimistic that there's now a deal to end it. well i mean it seems to be that the shutdown is ended at least for three weeks now and overall that is good news but if you look at the wall street perspective in the past five weeks so saw when the shutdown lost the wall street hardly paid attention we actually even saw quite rightly go on

airports causing delays. staffing shortages causing delays at la guardia and newark airport. is going on. >> we did have arrival delays at philadelphia, now recollect and la guardia. i think we will have them for most of the day. the word ground stop doesn't mean anything about stopping la guardia. the stopping is the taking off of flights to la guardia. so that is why we see this map here. it should be full of planes. there are only 30 going to la guardia. we will show you what is in the air. there are still 7,100 planes in the air. the good news is they are not this big. taking a look at what is going out of la guardia there are 65 to 70 planes going out. there should be 65 to 70 going in replacing those gates that are getting empty. if we take a look at our delays, the stop has stopped so planes will be able to leave from the airports now but they will be on a 60 to 90 minute delay. if you are going when is this thing going to take off, you might have to wait another 60 minutes. now we will meter into la guardia. we will meter you some places here at about a 30 arrival rate

and pentagon, it seems like there is a bit of movement but we just learned in the news that la guardia airport and other major airports are beginning to call for flighted delays because of staffing shortages so what can you tell our audience? if there is movement towards resolution resolution. >> this is a new crisis in president trump's mind. president trump submitted his request in february and house and senate both passed his budget request. and sutd, after democrats won in november, the president decided there is a crisis and he had to have more money. this is a new thought on his part and it's reasonable to say okay you want to have a debate about border security, we're open to that debate. there is no reason to have the government shut down for something you just six weeks ago decides was important. the suffering people are facing in this country right now federal employees don't know if they can buy food and going to food banks is having a pro found impact on individual lives, and we've got coast guards under the dod being sent to the persian gulf not being paid. and this is unacceptabl

la guardia airport, they say they've already experienced some 200 delays for their air traffic alone.so it's impacting the airlines, but this is a big deal because it's not happening in a vacuum. it's this coupled with tsa and those workers not showing up as well. >> very important point you made at the beginning about the domino effect on the economy. it's a personal toll, some of these people not showing up b s because they're somewhere out making money to make ends meet. we'll talk to the president to see if he has any new ideas here. phil mattingly joining us from capitol hill. the democrats issuing a comment on the flight delays. she sees an opening here. >> reporter: you could see it yesterday, you could see it when the president expressed extreme frustration at vice president pence yesterday. there is a tipping point on capitol hill and there is a lot of talk going on, not just between nancy pelosi and chuck schumer, but to come to some kind of agreement for getting the government back in a short period of time. we're hearing at the moment, at least in the course of the last ho

we also just learned the news that the la guardia airport and other major u.s. airports are beginning to call for flight delays because the staffing shortages. what can you tell our audience about if there is any movement towards a resolution? mr. smith: i i think it's very clear to reopen the government for three weeks and debate border security. this is what people have to keep in mind this is a relatively new crisis in president trump's mind. president trump submitted his budget request, 2019, back in february. 2018. the house and the senate both passed his budget request. i think there was $1.6 billion for some sort of barrier in there. then all of a sudden after the democrats won in november, the president decided that there was a crisis at the border and had he to have more money. this is a relatively new thought on his part. and it's perfectly reasonable to say, ok, you want to have a debate about border security and whether or not it's a wall or some of these other things, we're open to that debate. but there is no reason to have the government shut down

look at la guardia airport yesterday. said they were afraid they would miss their flights. 5% of the tsa workforce at dallas called out on friday. the agency says sick calls have increased since the utdowns started. the tsa employees are supposed to work witho pay during the shutdown because their jobs are essential. >> ifhis were to go on for months or years, we sive tough des of what do i do now? do i put gas in my car or go grocery shopping? >> tsa precheck is closed because of low staffing. the agency insists the long lines are not because of sick calls but the end of the travel rush.>> the vatican wants to try former cardinal theodore mccarrick as early as this week.

when you combine all of that -- again, the la guardia airport canceling fights, when its effecting real people and it's not just an inside the beltway conversation about a shutdown, that's why you can't take the victory lap. because you really want to get people working again and moving again in this country. what this country did see was a unified democratic party. you really saw, if any, democrats speaking out against nancy pelosi and for those that did prior to her becoming speaker, i bet they're grateful for her leadership now. >> there were so many people who were opposed to her and now they're grateful. one of the questions that still remains is, when will the state of the union take place? >> reporter: the thing you hear from congressional leaders is it will probably happen the tuesday after next. what is that february 5th? all of these days have amassed into one in my mind but not this coming tuesday, the very next tuesday. what has to happen is that both chambers have to pass legislation to allow the state of the union to happen and they haven't taken a vote on that yet. one im

laura ingall joins us from la guardia airport in new york. laura? >> reporter: hi, dana. just got off the phone with a tsa worker. he works in portland, oregon. he also works for the union that represents all tsa workers. he said things are getting serious. he's talking about younger folks who are having to move back in with their parents. some are going to pawn shops to sell their stuff. no income at all. what does that mean for us. people that come to the airports? welsh lot of people are in growing line. i want to show you what's happening at la guardia. lines are nonexistent at the moment. that's what we've been seeing all day long. passengers looking at three to 11 minutes. we just got the numbers from the transportation security administration of how many tsa workers called out yesterday. 7.5% of their work force compared to 3.3% from the same weekday last year. this after 10% called out over the weekend. those numbers are getting high. according to the tsa, many of the workers think the financial hardship of no pay check is what's making it difficult or impossible

it's the frigid, frigid winds and the temperatures that are causing delays here at la guardia airportrican airlines. the average delayed flight is about an hour and 52 minutes. that's according to the f.a.a. if you look at the departure board, it's about 15 to 30 minute delays. felt like minus 14 here and the de-icing and gusting winds. this weekend has been brutal. 4,800 cancellations seen since friday. the situation got better. 1,200 flights were cancelled sunday. that number is cut in half. about 600 flights were cancelled today. the most affected, boston's logan airport. they're seeing seven hours. three hours at newark's airport. delays in reagan and o'hare. the snow dropped two feet of snow in some places, a united flight skid off at o'hare in chicago over the weekend saturday. 129 people were on board. nobody was hurt. the plane slid in a snow bank. and a flight out of new jersey bound for hong kong was forced to make an emergency landing in canada because of a sick passenger. the plane could not take off again. so the passengers were stranded because of a technical issue. it w

let me show you these pictures from la guardia airport in new york a little earlier. er airports too, and unpaid workers are reported to be calling in sick. some workers have been deemed essential, so they are working without pay, others are being placed on temporary leave while all of this is playing out. this is jamie rodney, who is one of them. it is absolutely devastating for our lives. i am in a dual income earning middle—class family. my husband and i are a team. we require both of our incomes in order to make our life, which is that of a normal middle—class american family work. 0ur mortgage is due next thursday, daycare, preschool, for our three—year—old is due, bills for our car, insurance, everything, you name it. groceries, gas, what are we going to do? how am i going to get my thousands of dollars, my paycheck covered? donald trump says this wall is necessary to deal with illegal immigration. as just katty‘s just alluded to, government data suggest the problem has gone down significantly. in recent years. here a graph that shows monthly apprehensions, peopl

one at la guardia airport a ground stop lifted moments ago because of air traffic controller staffing issues. they expect delays around the country to persist. the latest biggest most frightening result of the government shutdown at day 35. more on that in just a moment. we'll dig into that in just a moment. >>> also, breaking news in the mueller investigation. roger stone, to appear in court any moment. the one time campaign official was arrested at his florida home this morning. his apartment here in new york also raided. an unsettling sight for president trump who says stone had guts for saying he'd never testify against the president. fbi agents, unpaid we should point out, arresting stone just after 6:00 this morning. seven counts in the indictment against stone, including false statements to investigators and witness tampering. the indictment also contains a lot of colorful anecdotes about a very colorful operative. the mueller team says that stone's intimidation tactics including telling one person, prepare to die. the indictment says that stone threatened this person's dog. ev

this comes, even though la guardia airport did shut down all incoming flights briefly in increaseto an in absences of the control stuff. scarlet: let's go to live pictures from the white house rose garden, where as we mentioned, president trump expected to deliver remarks on the partial government shutdown. he was supposed to be speaking 30 minutes ago p has not yet come out. let's bring in kevin cirilli, our chief washington correspondent. kevin, give us a sense of the i activity in the nation's capital this morning because of yesterday's two failed senate votes, what has been the state of discussion? wek extension is what we are anticipating - three week extension. president trump likely to make an announcement regarding a three week and stench and that would reopen the government, but we don't know if will include wall funding, which the president has been adamant about. sarah sanders saying earlier today the white house at the white house would not get on board with any type of short-term agreement unless there is a down payment on the wall. meanwhile, following the president's rem

had that warning from the faa about airlines and airport security and planes being able to take off and fly. this morning you had a ground stop at la guardia, the airport in the president's hometown. this caught his eye, as did pressure from republicans who were starting to break. while the republican coalition was showing cracks, democrats were actually holding pretty strong, which surprised among other people democrats who often fight among each other. they were able to stand together and not give and inch. ult pat ultimately, the president had to give in to where reality was. the shutdown was becoming worse for actual voters, actual people as you said at the top. so he is kicking the can down another couple weeks. i think we will try to work on some other proposals up until then. he has left open the possibility of the national emergency declaration. we will see. >> he gave that long speech in the rose garden which was positioned as a victory lap, describing everything he didn't get as though he had gotten it. >> that's classic donald trump. we have seen him over and over in the course of the last now four years as a politician and cert

that's because of the crisis that happened at faa, it was at la guardia, philadelphia airport, newark airport, the flights and impact on that not to mention the .5% gdp growth that would have been sliced off the first quarter growth, there was a lot of pressure on both sides of the aisle. the president's first sentence yesterday in that rose garden address was, hey, he still might use national emergency so three weeks from now that's an eternity in donald trump's washington and i'm not so sure this fight is over. >> and february 15th, we didn't get a down payment but it might be a layaway plan come february 15th. we'll have to continue to pay it. jeff, this did have far reaching impact economically, but politically what sort of impact did it have on the president the conservatives are not very happy with him. >> that's absolutely true and the clips that you just played illustrated that. it also strengthened democrats and speaker pelosi. it's giving a talking point to the 2020 nominee -- or the 2020 candidates who are emerging now on the democratic side to criticize the president, to t

for flights going into la guardia but all around la guardia that area is controlled by the air traffic controllers for that corridor therefore that has a knock on effect at airports such as newark and also philadelphia no if you just talk about the guardia alone you're talking about the airport which handle somewhere in the region of thirty million passengers a year so you could understand how this is going to impact thousands of people even a short groan stop now what happened well traffic controllers they are paid by the federal government they're simply not getting their pay checks at the moment it is illegal for them to coordinate any sort of industrial action that's a throwback to the ronald reagan era and so the idea that there is some sort of mass sicko would be immediately disputed by the union they point out we are in the middle of cold and flu season so it is not unreasonable that there be a large number of people calling in sick we've also got to know that the people that are currently not being paid for what king as air traffic controllers well they were told recently that if they took sick days off they would get that credited back to them so they wo

la guardia, that kicked everything in high gear. the president was briefed about this earlier today. listen here. it's a statement. she said the president has been briefed and we're monitoring the ongoing delays at some airports. we're in regular contact with officials at the department of transportation and the faa. the president has referred in the past to la guardia as a third world airport and a lot of people that fly out of there would agree. it's being reconstructed, as you can see there. the runway configuration limits the amount of air traffic that can get in and out. a lot of business travel that happens in and out of la guardia. when there's a ground stop there, it ripples throughout the system and becomes a very serious problem. as a life-long new yorker it's something that hits home for president trump. nancy pelosi said the trump shut down pushed our aero space to the breaking point. president trump stop injuring the well being of our nation, reopen government now. now the only other question to be answered in the immediate term is whether or not the state of the union is back on for tuesday night. there's no reason it shouldn't be if the government get reopened. even though nancy pelosi asked th

its way and on friday, travelers felt the impact as airports began seeing closures and delays la guardia airport you. thanks for joining us. >> good morning. thanks for having me on. >> how quickly can things get back to normal at this point >> we've been working through the weekend. we have meetings all week. bringing things back up online is a lot harder than shutting everything down. so we're going to do it methodically and make sure that we really start addressing some of the issues we hadn't in the last few days. >> what seems so shocking is this seems to be the surface of the problem. 30-year low of air traffic controllers. there's just no backstop if people call out sick or there's another shutdown, do you have the bench for it? >> that's -- you got the numbers exactly correct. shutting down the academy in oklahoma city because of the shutdown has really hurt also. so the pipe line has stopped so we have to focus on getting the academy up and running, hiring people, and training. it's a long training process to become a fully certified controller in the system depending on the facility yo

delays before the solution here are temporary, that you know, problems at area airports around the nation, including la guardia, and some of our major airports, with tsa problems. so all of this is kind of hitting ahead here, mike. >> during his comments, he mentioned that he had this powerful alternative. and i think what he meant by when he said that, he could still declare this national emergency. in 21 days from today. february 15th. do you think that could happen? >> absolutely. i think if they can't come up with a solution in 21 days, i think he may very well take that decision. of course, democrats also know that that decision will be challenged in court. and so you know, again, it will be a point of contention. but before this, he had every option to declare a national emergency. i think now he can say, hey. open the government for three more weeks. and nothing happened. so the hope is that something does happen in three weeks. or around border security. >> if he's gambling. that's basically that last alternative is kind of his last chip? >> absolutely. i don't think he has anything else to, to use you

let's get to what happened with those airports today. >> at la guardia will be, they handle over 29 million passengers each year. can you imagine the chaos when the fa far as announced a temporary ground stop to la guardia * just before 10:00 a.m. delays that continue up until now. we are talking about 90 minutes for flights going in and out of la guardia. delta which counts the hub as one of its major ones confirming that 200 of its flights were experiencing delays across affected airports. united said at this point we don't anticipate schedule disruptions. but it's another indication of the impact of the government shutdown. air traffic controllers, pilots, and flight attendants express their growing concern for safety. 595 flights, total cancellations, 47 flights. it was a bad day to travel in and out of new york city. jfk, that's a big one, experiencing airline delays. that was the tipping point to bring this temporary restart of government. in the latest earnings report, southwest says they are going to lose $15 million this year because of the partial shutdown and delta at $25 mill. >

after several major airports in the united states were hit by delays as a direct result of the shutdown the federal aviation administration says departures from new york la guardia philadelphia newark were all delayed many airports have been calling in sick we'll get more on the fallout from the shutdown in a moment with gable elizondo who is standing by for us there in kansas city first though let's speak to alan fischer in washington about this new shutdown dale but i suppose the problem is that it's temporary allan what is the likelihood of some sort of agreement to a compromise on the border wall taking shape in the next three weeks. well let's put this into practical and political practically it means the government reopens means that federal workers who haven't had their paychecks over the last month there's been two of them they will get their money it means that all the services that would normally be in place suddenly are in place that families who get food stamps will get food stamps that the f.b.i. will get paid that the people who are on security at airports will get paid that air traffic controllers will get paid so that's all good things politicall

airports in the u.s. east coast departures from new york's la guardia philadelphia and newark new jersey were all affected the f.a.a. says an increasing number of workers have been calling in sick. joining us from reagan national airport in washington d.c. what are you seeing there any delays going on. it to rain at the moment there is a quite a placid atmosphere you can see behind me it appears that there isn't many delays the official word from the airport is that operations are continuing as normal but just a few hours ago you wonder if something happened that was really the straw that broke the hamp camel's back and maybe influencing donald trump's reasoning for coming out to speak with the nation in a few minutes time and that was a ground stop at a nearby airport live or near airport in new york city the f.a.a. at that time said that it was because there were too many air traffic control employees who had simply not shown up for work today they've been going now close to the fifth week of working without pay focusing on that incredibly difficult and and detailed job of making sure that airplanes do

and delays at several airports because of a shortage of air traffic control staff specifically at la guardia and this of course being linked to the u.s. government shutdown now in its thirty fifth day there are reports that the u.s. president donald trump is preparing to declare a national emergency in order to get funding for his border wall which is really at the center of the shutdown dispute a bill to get the five billion dollars from congress was defeated on thursday and the shutdown is leaving eight hundred thousand workers about to miss their second monthly paycheck. met two of them in kansas city for defeat a hanson debil zz just keep piling up that's because she was sent home without pay a month ago for her customer service job at the u.s. taxi chancy field office in kansas city the longer the shutdown lasts the more pressure she feels like below is two hundred thousand dollars a month. so it's to pay half the light b.-o. and half my heating because it's cold. to buy food or to buy partial medicine chiquita goldsby has worked for the taxi chintzy for twenty five years and without pa

security says they are not in chaos due to the shutdown despite growing lines at airports like law guard yeah. law -- like la guardia. the biggest pilots unions wants an end to the shutdown. they say it's affecting the safety and efficiency of our system. reporter: the president is known for his use of twitter. but he's going old school tomorrow. also late tomorrow afternoon, vice president mike pence is going to come to the white house to brief republicans about the crisis at the border. jerry nadler says he expects the president to lie tomorrow night. we keep hearing a lot of rattling around on capitol hill on whether the president is going to impose a national emergency and go around congress to get his border wall. we saw president truman do that trying to federalize the steel industry and president obama did it with recess appointments. those were rebiewkd at the supreme court. there are three types of members of congress. democrats, republicans, and appropriators. you have seen a lot of republicans give deference on a lot of issues. but we saw pushback on saudi arabia and the way he dealt with the killing of j

airports that brought in to the u.s. government shutdown after more than a month with air traffic controllers calling in sick flights were delayed or canceled at new york's la guardia and other national hubs then washington came through with a deal. an agreement between president trump and democrats in congress with no money paid for a border wall and sure things will go back to normal federal offices will reopen as well national parks workers will get paid and their relief. the shutdown was really traumatic for a lot of people and i think it put a lot of american workers in a really challenging financial situation and i think that in the future i hope that shutdowns like this are avoided the family will be able to pay our bills will be able to hear anything you know the off the street and out begging for food. but the economic damage is done to shut down came over the white house's demand for five point seven billion dollars for a border wall now analysts standard and poor's say the shutdown cost six billion dollars mostly due to lost productivity and weakened economic activity the council of economic advisors within the white house picks the cost even higher esti
