Transportation Sec. Sean Duffy: Government shutdown has lasting effects even after it ends

Published | Video Starts at 11:11

And, and so it's not just the consequence on our air travelers. We heard from the United CEO saying, listen, we're seeing our bookings come down. Less people travel. That's less people eating out at restaurants, less people staying in hotels, less people renting cars, buying gas. This starts to get a ripple through the economy and has real consequences when people don't travel. (11:11–11:16)
