On April 21, Reps. Lauren Boebert and Dan Bishop led several of their colleagues in introducing the Securing Americans from Transportation Insanity Act to prohibit the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) from jeopardizing national security in the name of woke, transgender policy.

Rep. Lauren Boebert stated, “If you doubt the Biden regime is on a woke crusade to remake America in its own image, then look no further than the TSA’s new trans screening policies. Decreasing pat-downs and identity validation measures for people identifying as transgender might validate delusional leftists, but it does nothing for passenger safety. In fact, they are practically inviting terrorists to take advantage of our weak and woke security systems. The TSA literally has one job—and this isn’t it.”

Rep. Ralph Norman said, “Security is not a gender issue, it’s a safety issue. Allowing woke transgender policy to dictate TSA processes sets a dangerous precedent.”

Rep. Byron Donalds stated, “Democrats are engaging in a relentless crusade against our nation’s fabric and the values that make us exceptional. Look no further than promoting biological males competing in female sports, teaching gender fluidity and identity in elementary school, and now removing gender identification from security screening procedures by the TSA. I am proud to stand up against this lunacy and support the Securing Americans from Transportation Insanity Act to prohibit this extreme ideology that threatens our national security and rejects science.”

Rep. Bob Good said, “The leftist woke agenda is a threat to our national security! First, it was throwing open our Southern Border – now it’s the security of our airports. Making travel ‘gender-neutral’ is not only ridiculous and unscientific, it makes it harder to keep us safe. The government’s job is to protect Americans – not liberal’s feelings.”

Rep. Matt Gaetz stated, “The TSA’s newly announced ‘gender-neutral screening process’ doesn’t enhance the state of our national security, it diminishes it. Wokeness makes America unsafe. I am cosponsoring Rep. Lauren Boebert and Rep. Dan Bishop’s common-sense bill because the comprehensive safety and security of our country comes first.”
