Improved Security Vetting for Aviation Workers Act of 2015
This bill amends the Homeland Security Act of 2002 to direct the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to coordinate with DHS and the Interagency Policy Committee of the Office of the President to determine whether TSA should receive additional Terrorist Identities Datamart Environment data or other terrorism related category codes to assist in its credential vetting program for individuals with access to sensitive areas of airports.
The TSA shall:
The TSA shall coordinate with DHS and consult with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to conduct a pilot program of the Rap Back Service to determine the feasibility of its full implementation across eligible TSA-regulated populations. (The FBI Rap Back Service provides authorized agencies with notification of criminal, and, in limited cases, civil activity of individuals that occurs after the initial processing and retention of criminal or civil transactions.)
