Delta just yanked Congress’s VIP treatment mid-shutdown

While TSA agents are currently without pay due to the partial government shutdown, some airlines don’t think Congress members deserve special treatment. Delta Air Lines just suspended its Specialty Services perk for Congress members amid the shutdown that has left TSA workers without paychecks. 

“Due to the impact on resources from the longstanding government shutdown, Delta will temporarily suspend specialty services to members of Congress flying Delta,” Delta said in a statement to CNBC.
