The TSA was created in response to the 9/11 attacks, when it became clear that airport security needed a major overhaul. In 2001, the Airport Security Act was passed, and the TSA was born. It's been working tirelessly ever since to keep our airports and flights safe from threats and hazards.
But what does it mean for the TSA to be a federal agency? Well, for starters, it means they have the authority to make and enforce rules about security procedures. It's like having a referee in a game, making sure everyone follows the same rules to ensure a safe and fair experience for all. And, just like how you might complain about a traffic ticket, you can also provide feedback to the TSA about your security experience.
