The TSA is solely responsible for screening passengers and checked and carry-on baggage at 450 U.S. airports.
From the beginning this responsibility should have been turned over to the US Coast Guard. The Coast Guard is currently maritime, it’s military and it’s a multi-mission service. It already operates under the Department of Homeland Security. Its maritime law enforcement mission can be expanded to aviation. Its procedure & process oriented as well as military, therefore, lapses of judgment, decorum or ability by a Coast Guard screener can be reviewed & dealt with immediately. No union related encumbrances.
