GOP Platform Aims to Privatize TSA Screeners: Blog
The Republican platform is calling for the Transportation Security Administration to be privatized, according to a blog on the Washington Post website.
According to the platform adopted by Republicans this week in Tampa, TSA “procedures — and much of its personnel — need to be changed. It is now a massive bureaucracy of 65,000 employees who seem to be accountable to no one for the way they treat travelers. We call for the private sector to take over airport screening wherever feasible and look toward the development of security systems that can replace the personal violation of frisking.”
