前众议员玛乔丽·泰勒·格林（共和党-佐治亚州）指责交通部长肖恩·达菲和国土安全部长马克韦恩·马林利用周五的全国性停飞令索要更多纳税人资金，称他们的联合新闻发布会是“荒谬的胡扯”。“过去25年里，美国国会和历届政府在海外战争上花了约15万亿美元，这对他们中的任何人都无所谓，但没错，你们得再掏出500亿美元，好让他们终于能在美国修好点什么，”格林在社交平台上发帖写道。交通部和国土安全部代表未立即回应《国会山报》的置评请求。
Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) accused Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy and Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin of using Friday’s nationwide ground stop to demand more taxpayer money, calling their joint press conference “unreal bulls—.”“It doesn’t matter to any of them that the US Congress and every administration has spent like $15 trillion on foreign wars over the past 25 years but yeah you guys gotta fork over 50 billion more dollars so they can finally fix something in America,” Greene wrote in a post to the social platform Representatives for the Department of Transportation and the Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond to The Hill’s request for comment.
联邦航空管理局（FAA）周五下午下令全国所有美国航班停飞，这是罕见举措，此前曾在2023年使用过，再之前则是作为对2001年9月11日恐怖袭击的回应。
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) ordered a nationwide ground stop for all U.S. flights Friday afternoon, a rare move used previously in 2023, and before that, as a response to the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks.
联邦航空管理局称系因“暂时性电信中断”，达菲表示这是由于系统“数据过载”导致被迫关闭。
The FAA cited a “temporary telecommunications outage,” which Duffy said was caused by a system “overloaded with data” that forced them to shut it down.
在新闻发布会上，达菲表示希望获得500亿美元资金用于现代化空管系统——这是他担任交通部长以来的重点任务之一。
In the press conference, Duffy said he wanted $50 billion in funding for modernizing the air traffic control system — a key priority of his as transportation secretary.
“我想要500亿美元，”达菲说。“让我们完成这项工作：新硬件、新软件、新电信。”马林虽表示没有迹象显示是网络攻击或其他恶意行为，但称不会排除任何可能。格林声称他们在撒谎，“显然”是网络攻击，但未提供证据。
“I want $50 billion,” Duffy said. “Let’s finish this job: new hardware, new software, new telecommunication.”While Mullin said there was no indication of a cyberattack or anything nefarious, he said they would not rule anything out. Greene claimed they were lying and that it was “obviously” a cyberattack, without evidence.
联邦航空管理局近期推出了一款名为“空域、航路与轨迹战略管理”（SMART）计划的AI驱动空管工具。该工具首发于华盛顿特区地区，耗资8.75亿美元。
The FAA recently rolled out an AI-powered air traffic control tool, called the Strategic Management of Airspace, Routes and Trajectories (SMART) program. The tool debuted first in the Washington, D.C. area and cost the department $875 million.
SMART背后的公司Air Space Intelligence周五晚间发表声明，否认与停飞令有任何关联，达菲在简报会上也重申了这一点。交通部长分享了他致国会议员的信息，请求增加资金。
Air Space Intelligence, the company behind SMART, issued a statement Friday night denying any link to the ground stop, which Duffy echoed during the briefing. The transportation secretary shared his message to members of Congress requesting increased funding.
“给特朗普总统——给达菲钱。让他们完成这项工作，这样我们就不必再在晚上8点半开新闻发布会了，”达菲说。
“Give President Trump — give Duffy the money. Let them finish this job so we don’t have to do a press conference at 8:30 at night ever again,” Duffy said.
