Multiple airports, including Indianapolis, are refusing to play a video from Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem at security checkpoints.
The video, posted on social media by the White House, features Noem blaming Democrats for the ongoing government shutdown, which law and ethics experts say violates the Hatch Act.
Noem says in the video: "It is TSA's top priority to make sure that you have the most pleasant and efficient airport experience as possible while we keep you safe."
Legal experts claim that the video breaks the law, but note that there are rarely serious consequences for such violations.
The airports' decision to refuse the video is based on their policies against political messaging or illegal content.
