Aviation Security Checkpoint Technology Fund Act of 2023

S 2548 establishes the Aviation Security Checkpoint Technology Fund (ASCT Fund) within the Department of Homeland Security to finance airport security technology improvements. The fund will receive $250 million annually from existing airport security fees (2024-2028) for TSA to procure, test, deploy, and enhance checkpoint technology. TSA must provide quarterly reports to relevant congressional committees for five years on how these funds are used. This bill directly affects TSA operations and airport security technology procurement, redirecting existing fee revenue without creating new taxes.
