A bill to amend title 49, United States Code, to ensure that revenues collected from passengers as aviation security fees are used to help finance the costs of aviation security screening by repealing a requirement that a portion of such fees be credited as offsetting receipts and deposited in the general fund of the Treasury.

Bill 118 s 4906, also known as the Aviation Security Fees Act, aims to amend title 49 of the United States Code to ensure that the revenues collected from passengers as aviation security fees are used specifically to finance the costs of aviation security screening. Currently, a portion of these fees is required to be credited as offsetting receipts and deposited into the general fund of the Treasury. This bill seeks to repeal this requirement, allowing all revenues collected from passengers as aviation security fees to be used solely for the purpose of funding aviation security screening. This change would ensure that the fees paid by passengers are directly contributing to enhancing aviation security measures, rather than being diverted to other areas of government spending.
