John Mica
The Public Record
John Mica is a former U.S. Representative who served Florida's 7th congressional district from 1993 to 2017. A member of the Republican Party, Mica was known for his work on transportation and infrastructure issues, playing a significant role in shaping policies related to these areas during his tenure. He was also involved in various legislative efforts aimed at improving the economy and supporting local businesses in Florida. Mica's long career in public service included a focus on constituent services and community engagement.
As I told the Ranking Member, the decision on Sanford was to put out an RFP last week.
The mandate by Congress was pretty clear. It should not take two years to get this moving, which it has done.
I want them to be able to compete honestly but they cannot do that unless they get honest answers and the public should be able to see your exact costs.
I know also that they are the last for service of some of that equipment, for answers from TSA which never come.
In fact, the January 2013 TSA report, 'Screening Partnership Annual Report,' says none of the three major goals towards implementing private screening were completed.
Members of Congress, like myself and others, were frustrated with what was going on.
Again, there is no discounting for the number of personnel you do not need when you have a private operation.
That is not acceptable. That is a slow roll, dragging your feet as I described in the beginning.
