Summary

The Improving Travel for Military Members Act authorizes the Transportation Security Administration to establish a pilot program providing expedited airport security screening for active-duty military personnel and accompanying family members. The pilot must be implemented within 60 days of enactment at airports prioritizing locations near military installations with adequate physical infrastructure for dedicated screening lanes. All passengers must be screened according to Secure Flight vetting procedures, with expedited access restricted to those with appropriate boarding pass authorization. The TSA Administrator must brief relevant House and Senate committees nine months after program establishment, and the pilot program operates for a three-year period.
