Secretary Noem Awards $10,000 Bonuses to Logan Airport TSA Officers For Exemplary Service During Democrats’ Shutdown

Over 270 Boston TSA officers had perfect attendance

BOSTON - On Saturday evening, the United States Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem gave $10,000 bonuses to Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officers at Logan International Airport in Boston, Massachusetts, who went above and beyond during the Democrats' 43-day shutdown. Over 270 TSA officers in Boston had perfect attendance in the face of economic uncertainty during the shutdown.

Earlier this week, Secretary Noem announced that select TSA officers nationwide would be receiving a $10,000 bonus in appreciation for their dedication and commitment to keeping America safe even as Democrats fought for healthcare for illegal aliens.

"Despite not receiving a paycheck, our TSA officers at Logan Airport kept travelers safe during the Democrats' government shutdown," said Secretary Noem. "Over 270 TSA officers at Logan Airport didn't miss a shift. These public servants who went above and beyond to keep Americans safe will be receiving a $10,000 bonus. Americans can be proud of these men and women who keep us safe every day."

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is paying for these bonuses using carryover funds from Fiscal Year 2025. This funding is available thanks to President Trump and Secretary Noem's commitment to fiscal responsibility, enabling DHS to save the American taxpayer over $13.2 billion since President Trump returned to office.
