Airlines Cut Flights Amid Shutdown

Airlines across the US have canceled flights scheduled for the coming days, as the longest government shutdown in history snarls up air travel and forces thousands of passengers to change their travel plans.

With hundreds of services already trimmed and more on the way, the world’s busiest aviation market has become a flash point in the long-simmering clash between Republicans and Democrats over federal funding as President Donald Trump ramps up pressure to forge a deal.

The Republican-led administration has said the reductions are necessary to keep flying safe amid staffing shortages brought on by the shutdown. At least one top congressional Democrat has called for more transparency to ensure the move isn’t politically motivated.

Bloomberg Washington Correspondents Joe Mathieu and Kailey Leinz deliver insight and analysis on the latest headlines from the White House and Capitol Hill, including conversations with influential lawmakers and key figures in politics and policy. On this edition, Bloomberg's Tyler Kendall is in for Kailey. Joe and Tyler speak with:

Former US Ambassador to Ukraine William Taylor.

Bloomberg Correspondent Norah Mulinda.
