This legislation aims to enhance the security operations of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) while improving the working conditions and rights of its employees. By transitioning TSA personnel management to the federal General Schedule pay system, the bill seeks to standardize pay, benefits, and job protections for TSA employees, particularly those in screening positions and Federal air marshals. Key provisions include the assurance that employees will not see a reduction in their adjusted basic pay or law enforcement availability pay during the transition.
