I strongly supported that effort, and I was glad that we in Congress were able to fulfill TSA's request and fund critical improvements for the workforce.

Last year, TSA faced a major funding shortfall, as the agency sought more than a $1 billion increase to pay for salary raises and expanded collective bargaining rights.
Addressing these vulnerabilities does not require any futuristic technology or creative solution; it simply requires TSA to stop outsourcing identity verification functions to a corporation seeking to make a profit.
We must support small businesses, since they are some of the biggest drivers of innovation and progress.
I think a system should be developed that should be good enough for the people as well as Members of Congress and I don't think Members of Congress needs any special treatment at TSA points.
