What this bill does

AI plain-language summary

This bill requires the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to start a test program that creates different security screening lines and methods for travelers with children who are 12 years old or younger. The goal is to make going through airport security easier for families with young kids. The program must be set up at least five airports, and airports that see a lot of families traveling with children would be chosen first.
