H.R. 1140 Would Give Them Full Collective Bargaining Rights
The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) enthusiastically supports the Rights for Transportation Security Officers Act of 2019 (H.R. 1140) re-introduced by Representatives Bennie Thompson (D-MS) and Nita Lowey (D-NY). If passed, the law would give Transportation Security Officers (TSOs) full collective bargaining rights and ensure these officers have the same workplace rights as other federal workers.
