Legislation Details

116th Congress

A bill to provide PreCheck to certain severely injured or disabled veterans, and for other purposes.

Sponsor: Sen. Todd Young — R — IN

Waives the $85 fee for disabled veterans, as defined in the act, who wish to enroll in the PreCheck program operated by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). PreCheck expedites the security screening process for commercial airline travelers. Those veterans also would need to meet the applicable security requirements for participating in PreCheck. About 7 million people (or 3 percent of the adult population) are enrolled in PreCheck. The $85 fee covers all of TSA’s costs to enroll a person in the program.
