New Jersey Senator Michael Doherty (R-Warren, Hunterdon) announced today that he has introduced three pieces of legislation drafted to eliminate any immunity TSA agents might enjoy when violating New Jersey law during unnecessary and invasive airport screenings:
“For more than a month now, the TSA has quite literally stuck their finger in the eye of law-abiding American citizens while trampling on their cons utionally guaranteed liberties,” Doherty stated. “We call upon every state legislature in our great country to immediately act to put our federal government on notice that the dignity of our citizens shall not be the cost of a failed federal open border policy.”
The following bills were introduced:
Makes certain body searches third degree crime of sexual assault under certain cir stances. View as PDF.“All of these bills remove any claim that TSA agents are immune to any state statutes that they violate when searching passengers or crew,” Doherty concluded. “If we don’t take strong action against these violations, where will it lead? Today planes, tomorrow trains and buses, what then? Will the drive to the market be viewed as a ‘privilege,’ the walk to church? Will we stand upon the slippery slope of paranoia that leads to invasive searches becoming a way of daily life, or say no, and defend our rights to privacy now while we still have them.”
Prohibits use of body imaging scanners to screen passengers and airline crew members. View as PDF.
Specifies that certain images generated by body scans violate State statutes, prohibiting invasion of privacy, pornography, and endangerment of child welfare under certain cir stances. View as PDF.

well
to be fair..
you could make the argument that the Airlines are a private business, and since they are a private business, you have the same rights as you do any other service provider. They set the rules and if you don't like it, don't buy a ticket......
Who, please?

I appreciate the specificity. Thx.
I didnt really care to name names, honestly, but its public information I guess.
The TSA is an agency of the DHS, a government en y. Try again.
Not to mention that contractual arrangements don't trump the law. If scanning underage kids is found to be in violation of a law or statute, said contract is unenforceable.
Thats a pretty ed up argument since the airlines don't set the rules.
I'd gladly welcome the airlines being in charge of their own security.
Whatever's said here is the definition of public information.
If they choose to set such rules, fine. people can move on to their compe ion.
Do you think the airlines like the TSA infringements?
