Lawmakers form transportation security caucus

{mosads}”This caucus will provide an important forum for members to become more informed on the issues our nation faces in better securing our transportation systems, which is essential for protecting American lives,” Rogers, who is chairman of the panel’s Transportation Security Subcommittee, added.

Rogers said a major focus of the panel would the controversial Transportation Security Administration, which said “has grown into a bloated, inefficient bureaucracy in need of reform.

“This necessary reform will certainly be one of the major topics of discussion within the caucus, as well as how we can promote technology innovation to assist private sector job creation and strengthen privacy protections for travelers,” he said.
