Texas Holds ‘Don’t Touch My Junk’ Rally Against TSA Threat To Shut Down Texas Airports

~

Dozens gathered at the Capitol in Austin on Saturday demanding a stop to TSA officers “touching their junk” at the airport.

Rally attendees are hoping to call attention to a recently proposed Texas bill that would limit TSA searches and enforce criminal charges for TSA officers if they touch someone inappropriately.

The U.S. Attorney’s office was furious with the bill, threatening to cancel flights in Texas if the bill passed, arguing that TSA agents would not be able to do their jobs properly.

The Texas Senate heeded this warning and caved in by voting against the bill.
