Congressman John Mica of Florida, a Republican, is letting airports know about the SPP. He should know since he is one of the authors of the Aviation Tranportation Security Act. But that doesn't mean he should help his benefactors (aka Gerry Berry, $700, and FirstLine Transportation Security's Political Action Committee, $1000) in such a brazen fashion. It seems that Orlando Int'l Airport, in response to the Congressman, will host a presentation on December 8.

Note that Orlando International does not have an Airport Board meeting scheduled on December 8. So PowerPoint presentations from any contractors present promising the moon may not be published online.
I have to believe the powers that be are starting to play hide the details. Commentor "Anon" may see this as a Republican play based on their pending majority in the House, but let's be real. A divided Congress leads to deal-making between the parties (just like in 2002). SEIU obviously has an end game here. Will AFGE respond on behalf of their members in Orlando? And how?

So you are getting my stuff. I was wondering why my last couple of comments hadn't been posted. Hope I didn't offend.
ReplyDeleteIn case you didn't know, be sure to follow John Pistole's testimony before the congressional oversight committee today at 0700 on CSPAN3.
it 's a fair game . CAS want to expand ,they look for more profit .We ( the work force ) we want job security as our job is all about security.
ReplyDeleteWith the private and especially a Hi-Fi company like Covenant aviation security ,it's a legitimate
fight to federalize SFO tso's.
After all the SPP was intended to be a pilot project of two years.
PS: HI_FI for Covenant stands for Hire-Fire.
