California lawmakers propose a bill (SB-1372) requiring Clear, a security screening company, to separate its expedited lines from non-members by 2025.
California lawmakers propose a bill to ban Clear, a security screening company that allows travelers to pay $189 for expedited airport security lines. The sponsor, Sen. Josh Newman, a Democrat, argues that the service creates a "basic equity issue" and allows wealthier travelers to bypass long security lines. The bill, SB-1372, does not intend to ban Clear entirely but requires the company to establish its own security area away from non-members. If passed, the bill would take effect in 2025.
