Unionized TSA Employees Get Generous Allowance for Uniforms

Under their new collective bargaining agreement, Transportation Security Administration officers get to spend more taxpayer money on their uniforms every year than a United States Marine Corps lieutenant can spend in a lifetime.

"TSA employees will see their uniform allowances nearly double to $446 per year," the House Transportation Committee noted in a press release on the TSA's new collective bargaining agreement. "By comparison, a combat Marine Lieutenant receives a one-time uniform allowance of $400. The cost of the increase in TSA uniform allowance is an estimated $9.63 million annually."
