Referred to the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, and in addition to the Committee on Homeland Security, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.

Bill 119 HR 321, also known as the "Gate Pass Act," aims to create a new system that will make it easier for caregivers, parents, and guardians to accompany minors and passengers who require assistance to their flights. The bill proposes to expedite the process of obtaining gate passes, which are necessary for individuals who are not flying to accompany someone to their departure gate.

The purpose of this legislation is to address the challenges that caregivers, parents, and guardians face when trying to assist minors or passengers with special needs at the airport. Currently, the process of obtaining a gate pass can be time-consuming and cumbersome, often requiring individuals to go through multiple security checkpoints and provide extensive documentation.

If passed, the Gate Pass Act would streamline this process, making it quicker and more efficient for caregivers, parents, and guardians to accompany their loved ones to their flights. This would not only provide peace of mind for those who require assistance, but also ensure that they have the support they need throughout their travel experience. Overall, Bill 119 HR 321 seeks to improve the travel experience for minors and passengers in need of assistance by simplifying the process of obtaining gate passes for their caregivers, parents, and guardians. This legislation aims to make air travel more accessible and accommodating for all individuals, regardless of their age or level of need.
