Airport Security Hassles Are Not Just For Philly

On March 14, 2011 Daniel Ruben, with the Philadelphia Inquirer, wrote the following article.

As tales of bizarre screenings kept coming from the Philadelphia International Airport, my biggest question was: Is this a Philly problem, or is the TSA troubling passengers everywhere?

With help from congressional investigators, I can finally say we are not alone. Staffers with the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform have combed through 9,500
pages of documents they requested from the Transportation Security Administration, and examined 3,500 complaints of misconduct between January 2009 and last June.

From that list the TSA identified 89 civil rights complaints. Only one case came from Philadelphia.
