This could be year reform comes to TSA

Friday, 17 Jan, 2012 0

Is the TSA ready for reform? Evidence for that comes from elected officials who may also be tiring of "abuses at their hands," writes the Independent Traveler.

"Two congressmen from New York proposed the addition of a passenger advocate person at every airport nationwide. Meanwhile, former Minnesota governor Jesse Ventura attempted to sue the TSA and presidential candidate Ron Paul has said he would abolish the agency altogether if elected," the site says.

For an organization with some 70,000 employees who interact with the public on a daily basis, the addition to the TSA of someone charged with seeing and advocating for the passenger’s point of view seems "pretty reasonable," the site adds.
