Investigations of the TSA
In 2013 The Office of Inspector General published a reported titled "TSA’s Actions Insufficient to Address Inspector General Recommendations to Improve its Office of Inspection". The bill touched upon several topics of misconduct but the main focus of the bill was of the TSA criminal investigators who received a premium on their pay despite not meeting the minimum qualification to be eligible for this pay.

The TSA Office of Accountability Inspection Act of 2015 published by the Committee of Commerce, Science, and Transportation, was a report investigated and found issues with the TSA. The act also followed up the Office of Inspector General's 2013 report, mandating that the TSA should comply with Federal Regulation and correct the wage of the TSA's Criminal Investigators. . Had no action been taken this misuse of funds was estimate to cost taxpayers, in a span of five years, $17million dollars.

In response the TSA contracted a consulting firm to assist the TSA with the Office of Inspector General recommendations. However Office of Inspector Generals has found the TSA's response lacking as they have yet to a majority of the issues brought up in the report.
