FASTER Act

S 4906, the FASTER Act, removes a requirement that aviation security fees be deposited into a separate Treasury account. Instead, these fees will be directly available to the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) Administrator to fund security operations without restrictions from laws like the Anti-Deficiency Act. The bill streamlines how TSA manages its budget for aviation screening services, directly affecting TSA's funding flexibility. This change modifies administrative procedures for fee usage but does not introduce new security policies or requirements.
