Pistole has come out with his plan for "limited" collective bargaining. Certain Republicans, predictably, are spouting off about it. This is about cash to these Republicans. Nothing gets them pissed off more than watching the competition increase their fundraising capability.
If they get the chance, there will be payback. There is no turning back now. For this reason, Democrats should expand on Pistole's (limited) efforts on behalf of TSOs and introduce legislation to kill the Screening Partnership Program.
Bennie Thompson seems likes too much of a wuss to do it. Maybe a Senator somewhere can get the ball rolling. Even if the effort is ultimately unsuccessful, it would require the cost-conscious, budget-cutting, deficit-hawking Republicans to vote for the 10% more costly private-screening option. Yes We Can!
