Notes -
The excuse I heard when I was trying to get my passport renewed earlier this year was that US Customs and Border Security funding was in a perpetual state of tug-of-war over culture war immigration issues, and that the agency has been deliberately short-staffing the departments that nice, middle-class professionals rely on in order to place constituent pressure on Congress for budget increases (same way whenever National Park Service funding is impacted by debt ceiling negotiations or whatever, the first thing they do is rope off popular monuments on the National Mall as a passive-aggressive protest)
