From The National Law Review:
On Thursday, July 23, the House Homeland Security Subcommittee on Transportation Security advanced three measures aimed at strengthening the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), after covert TSA testing earlier this year found airport screeners failed to detect prohibited items in 67 out of 70 test cases. The Transportation Security Administration Reform and Improvement Act of 2015 would amend the Homeland Security Act of 2002 to improve the efficiency of TSA’s PreCheck program, review TSA’s secure flight program comparing airline passenger lists to government watch lists, and require a report on the efficiency and effectiveness of the Surface Transportation Security Inspection Program, which surveys and conducts inspections of freight rail operations across the United States.
