  • Not as many problems as traveling without one.

    Having traveled before with someone in that exact situation, yes, there will be harassment and TSA may very well intentionally force you miss your flight and end up waiting to fly standby on the next one. But as of now, you generally do get through, which cannot be said for traveling internationally without any passport at all.

    Will that change? Highly likely. Soon? Probably.

    But there are a not insignificant number of people who only recently decided it’s no longer safe, applied for passports, made plans to leave, and saw recent stories about passports not being issued. This type of scare mongering does not help them, and can be actively harmful to their mental health and well-being.

    Edit: Obviously the longer they stay, the higher the chance this changes.















  • Also called “at will” employment. The employer can fire you “at will” and you have the “right to work” somewhere else.

    What it actually is is a union busting law. You have the “right to work” for an employer without being required to join a union. Generally this means being covered by any collective bargaining agreement but not paying the union dues. Which means the union collapses because it can’t afford to keep itself running. These are the laws that collapsed the American trade union movement.
