It requires that rail and transit systems work with DHS to develop comprehensive risk assessments and security plans. and authorizes more than $4 billion over 4 years for rail. transit. and bus security grants. Keeping in mind that the 9/11 hijackers and Richard Reed. the shoe bomber. boarded commercial aircraft and traveled here legally. this legislation will make it harder for terrorists to enter our country. by adding much needed security enhancements to the Visa Waiver Program. These include a new electronic travel authorization system so that travelers from visa waiver countries can be checked against terrorist watch lists and improved reporting of lost and stolen passports.
