This rise is mainly driven by persistent inflation , strong economic data, and uncertainty caused by global tensions like the U.S.–Iran conflict. Higher mortgage rates mean increased monthly payments for homebuyers, making housing less affordable—especially for first-time buyers.

Among the hardest hit is the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) —the agency responsible for airport security. Over 50,000 TSA workers have been working without pay.
