Travel is a right. Flying, as a form of travel, is a right. Travel on a common carrier is even a MORE, not less, protected right.

There may be a right (assumed, the USC is silent on the word “travel” except for Congresspeople) to travel, but that does not extend to the manner of travel. Both the Legislative and Executive branches have a long list of USC sections under which they can apply rules and restrictions to things like air travel.

Or are you saying all travel should be unfettered and let the bodies fall where they may?

We need SOME safeguards — just not the ones the idiots at the TSA are imposing.
