Original Legislation to Give TSA Employees a Raise
TSA Pay Raise: 15 Percent Increase for Officers
This bill is currently in the early stages of the legislative process after being sent to the House Committee on Homeland Security. It is actively moving forward as it waits for the committee to review it. There are no other scheduled actions at this time.
Legislative Progress
While there is often support for TSA workers, bills that only raise pay for one specific agency usually struggle to pass unless they are part of a much larger government spending deal.
Key Points
- This bill would give a 15 percent pay raise to most workers at the Transportation Security Administration. It focuses on career agents and officers who work at airports and other transit hubs.
- The plan also raises the pay limits for the entire TSA compensation system by 15 percent. This ensures that the new higher salaries fit within the agency's official pay structure.
- High level executives and senior leaders would not get this raise. The goal is to help the frontline workers who handle security screenings and daily operations.
- If passed, the pay increase would start almost immediately. Workers would see the extra money in their checks during the first full pay period after the bill becomes law.
