Get Your Free Government Background Checks
Transportation Security Administration (TSA) would love to start a security file on you. This summer coming to travelers is an offer they can afford to pass up: CAPPS 2.1: Computer-Assisted Passenger Pre-Screening System. What happens if you volunteer to have a background check done and the answer comes back that you are a security risk? Better learn to like long distance bus trips. Can you find out why you are a security risk? No. Can you correct incorrect information? No.
