So I first want to say that I am grateful to the city of El Paso and the very professional staff at the El Paso International Airport that have been dealing with this very abrupt, unannounced decision by the FAA. I learned about this 10 day closure not through the administration, not through the FAA, which is the agency that made the decision. I've learned about this through a member of the federal workforce who wanted to ensure that I knew what was happening. (26:37–26:48)
