FUND TSA & BLOCK SAVE ACT + Kolhberg's Moral Reasoning There is no need for the SAVE act, the amount of fraud attempts by non citizens is not even statistically significant, therefore you are making a false argument if you suggest that this is an issue. It simply is not. Our voting is already safe and secure. But what isn't secure is our flights without funded TSA. Make sure they are getting paid. BUT NEVER EVER EVER go for the SAVE act. Reject it at every time it comes up. Consider this: ✔️ The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is funded in part by a fee on airline tickets called the September 11th Security Fee. ✔️ The amounts listed are correct: $5.60 per one-way trip $11.20 roundtrip ✔️ This fee applies even to reward tickets (you still pay taxes/fees even if the flight itself is “free”). ✔️ Some of the collected TSA fee money has been redirected to the general U.S. Treasury in the past, rather than going entirely to TSA operations. I beg of you to stay accountable to the highest moral reasoning (Kolhbergs level 6) and reject the tendency of authoritarian/legalistic societies that get stunted at level 3 (or sometimes 4). You should have love, empathy, and human dignity as the principles above all else. The rest is mere applications of "how do we love" "how do we understand" "how do we uphold human dignity". So once again; FUND TSA & BLOCK SAVE ACT + use Kolhberg's Moral Reasoning at Level 6
