Tokuda meets with air traffic controllers across Hawaiʻi amid shutdown strain

Air traffic controllers missed their paychecks Tuesday because of the ongoing government shutdown, which just concluded its fourth week. As a show of support, US Rep. Jill Tokuda (D-Hawaiʻi-2) has met with numerous air traffic controllers on Oʻahu, Maui and Hawaiʻi Island to discuss its impacts on aviation safety and the livelihoods of federal workers.
