Detection at Range Technology for Screening of Passengers Act
This bill clarifies legal requirements for using "detection at range" technology (like advanced scanners) in airport passenger screening. It directly affects airport security procedures and the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) by modifying existing law to explicitly include civil rights, civil liberties, and privacy considerations. The key change adds "civil rights, civil liberties, and" before "privacy" in screening requirements and references a specific 2018 appropriations act. This is a procedural clarification, not a new policy, to ensure screening technology complies with privacy and civil rights standards.
