“I visited the airport in my State over the last weekend, and there were many new security measures in that airport put in place, and the National Guard was greatly appreciated in terms of their presence. But we can do a lot better when it comes to security. We should match all bags with passengers, we should federalize airline security, we can require overseas airlines to disclose passenger lists before they arrive in the United States, and we can require all luggage be X-rayed for bombs. The Senate has acted 100 to nothing. We do not have a bill on the floor. We need a bill. We need a bill now. It is absolutely unacceptable that we are not working on airline safety.”
