Good
It should stay that way permanently. Why do they get special treatment? Last I checked these 🤡 🤡 work for us.
They should forget to start them up again later.
Stick it to ‚em!!!
Good!
They can only visit the Costco lounge now! /s
Why do they get perks in the first place?
Pass a law that when there is a gov’t shutdown they lose access to the gym and non critical medical services at the capital.
they should have to fly with the luggage.
Good, now if we could only get our orange leader (with a dirty diaper) , to stop billing the US taxpayers for his weekend war Florida trips. Ie he Mara Lago)gets MILLIONS to golf at his resorts and pay extra extraordinary rates for Secret Service all billed to the US taxpayer. Let the Lindsey Grahams and Kash Patel of the world fly coach for a change.
Good. Can we suspend them robbing us of our money while doing nothing for constituents and insider trading for themselves?
Are these the „wins“ we’re willing to accept? Members of Congress now slightly inconvenienced?
We’re fucking cooked.
This should be permanent, across all fleets.
Good.
If they want their perks back, fund the government.
Good
Eh they probably all have airline status anyway
“Delta discontinues bribe to elected officials”
They should ban private plans to land. Guess how quick congress will come with a solution when the situation affects the Epstein class
Isn’t that tax fraud if they don’t declare it? It’s a gift

Oh, that’s funny. Congresspeople usually get to cut the line. Thus making this whole TSA shutdown not much of a problem for them. But taking this perk away? Now they will find themselves waiting for hours in lines among the grumbling masses who will certainly be not to pleased to see them. Especially this holiday weekend.
Have fun, guys!
Delta looking for some good will after being the ICE deportation airlines? Fuck off Delta
As an occasional ATL-DCA flyer, I’m pretty sure Delta parks planes at the T gates (closest to security) when elected officials are flying.
I already liked you Delta, now I like you even more.
They should had done as soon as the shut down was looming.
Airlines need to treat them the same as the unwashed masses, too
Should my congress critters waste time in long lines when they could be productively spending that time kissing the golden trump rump.
Can’t wait to hear Nancy Mace’s reaction to this one.
Oh well that should teach them…😂
Good
Well, the government is shut down, I don’t see any reason for them to leave DC until it’s up and running again anyway
Another reason why I choose Delta!
No public servant or elected official should EVER get/receive perks
Schumer: „Welp, time to cave so I get my special perks back.“
Good
Rare Delta win, but I’ll fucking take it!
Good!!! You dont get to enjoy perks when you vote against funding TSA.
That should have NEVER been a thing in the first fucking place.
Well, thats something I guess
Let them fly in coach. That would be a sight to see.
Now private industry is holding the Government accountable.. welcome to the upside down
Good.
These incompetent assholes in government should be directly punished for being ineffectual. Govt shuts down, no pay or health insurance for anyone in congress until they get off their haggard asses.
Nice, that’s something we can all enjoy!
Oh, you’re a member of congress, here’s your special cone-shaped hat, also you are required to wear this round red nose protector, and finally please put on this giant fluorescent t-shirt. Yes, it does say “kick me” on the back, don’t worry, that’s just for an emergency to remind other passengers you’re special, so they’ll give you a boost down the inflatable slide.
Like I said in r/news, they aren’t anyone special just because they won an election. They should always be treated the same as their constituents.
And don’t give them back.
I wonder how Trump is going to retaliate against a business this time
