Last years attack at LAX was a tragic reminder of the perils our transportation security and law enforcement officers face every day. I commend the bravery of the officers and first responders that saved many lives one year ago today - especially the sacrifice of Officer Gerardo Hernandez. While TSA has taken positive steps to update emergency response protocols, my bill, the Gerardo Hernandez Airport Security Act, would help to solidify these changes and ensure we are fully prepared to respond to similar security threats and acts of terrorism. Im proud that the House passed this bill and hope that our colleagues in the Senate will put this important legislation on the Presidents desk.
