Midday News: Airport Delays Mount Amid Federal Shutdown, Heating Aid Applications Postponed, and Early Voting Begins in New York City
Update: 2025-10-30
Description
LaGuardia Airport is reporting inbound flight delays of more than an hour, with similar slowdowns at JFK and Newark, as air traffic controllers work without pay during the month-long federal shutdown. Meanwhile, the same shutdown is delaying New York State’s heating assistance program until at least November 17th, leaving low-income residents waiting for help. And early voting is underway in New York City, where WNYC’s David Brand breaks down a ballot proposal to digitize the city’s paper map archives.
