HR 8662 United States House · 118th Congress

TSA Commuting Fairness Act

HR 8662, the TSA Commuting Fairness Act, requires the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) to conduct a feasibility study on whether to count commuting time between employees' regular work locations and airport parking/transit stops as on-duty hours. The study, due within 270 days of enactment, must examine commute times at different airport sizes (small, medium, large hubs), current commuting patterns, potential employee and agency benefits, mobile reporting methods, and costs - including retirement pay implications. The bill directly affects TSA employees working at airport locations and mandates the study be submitted to relevant congressional committees. This procedural bill does not change current policy but sets a process for evaluating a potential adjustment to how commute time is treated.
