All because "equity" or something. "It's a basic equity issue when you see people subscribed to a concierge service being escorted in front of people who have waited a long time to get to the front of TSA line," Newman told CBS MoneyWatch. "I do understand the frustration stated in Senator Newman’s bill," Nguyen, who sits on the transportation committee, told Politico. "It becomes a haves vs. have-nots where those who can afford it jump in front of the rest of us. They even cut in front of TSA Pre-boarding pass travelers who have been screened by the TSA." What this legislation boils down to is that the government and government unions are trying to eliminate a private company that is doing the job more efficiently than the government and making a profit off of doing it. The PreCheck system allows travelers who pay $70 to $80 every five years to enjoy an expedited screening process by submitting fingerprints and a valid ID. Nobody is forcing anyone to use the TSA PreCheck or Clear's system; customers voluntarily pay the fees for the benefits of not waiting in a long line. It is the same thing as most amusement parks charging a hefty fee for the perks of bypassing long lines at their parks.
