Airports Should Opt For Private Screening
Nov 22, 2010
By James Ott
John L. Mica (R-Fla.), ranking Republican on the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, is urging the 100 busiest airports to consider switching to private security companies in place of the Transportation Security Administration. TSA would continue as the regulating agency overseeing hands-on screening operations.
It “was never envisioned that [the TSA] would become a huge, unwieldy bureaucracy,” he added in a common letter, soon to go to 67,000 employees. One of the authors of the public law that created the TSA, Mica has long regarded the agency’s role as a regulator, rather than a hands-on screening operation, his aviation subcommittee aide said Thursday.
