(Washington, DC) -- Monday is the deadline for all federal workers to be vaccinated against coronavirus or risk losing their jobs.  

That includes TSA agents. President Biden's order comes as millions are expected to fly this week during the Thanksgiving travel rush.

The TSA says it'll take time to know the full impact of the mandate as many employees have asked for medical or religious exemptions. Those decisions could take several weeks.
