Bill 118 s 5538, also known as the "Child Passenger Protection Act," aims to allow certain children to accompany their parents or legal guardians through Global Entry airport lanes. Global Entry is a program that allows pre-approved travelers to expedite their entry into the United States.
The bill directs the Secretary of Homeland Security to amend regulations to permit children under a certain age to use Global Entry lanes with their parents or legal guardians. This would make the travel process more efficient and convenient for families, as they would not have to split up at airport security checkpoints.
The purpose of this bill is to ensure the safety and well-being of children while also streamlining the travel process for families. By allowing children to accompany their parents or legal guardians through Global Entry lanes, it would reduce the likelihood of children getting separated from their families and provide a more seamless travel experience for all parties involved.
Overall, the Child Passenger Protection Act seeks to make travel easier and more secure for families using the Global Entry program.
