Not later than one year after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Administrator of the Transportation Security Administration
(TSA)shall conduct a pilot project to test a secure, automated, and biometric-based system at airports to verify the identity of individuals who are members of TSA PreCheck or another Department of Homeland Security trusted traveler program that affords TSA expedited screening. Such system shall be designed to— improve security while also reducing the need for security screening personnel to perform identity and travel document verification for such individuals; reduce the average wait time of such individuals; reduce overall operating expenses of the Administration; be integrated with the Department’s watch list and trusted traveler matching programs; and be integrated with other technologies to further facilitate risk-based passenger screening at checkpoints, to the extent practicable and consistent with security standards.
