TSA confirms PreCheck remains active after false suspension report.

The TSA confirmed on February 22, 2026, that the PreCheck program remains active, reversing an earlier claim of a temporary suspension during a broader Department of Homeland Security shutdown. The agency did not explain the initial announcement or the reason for the reversal. PreCheck continues to operate normally, allowing eligible travelers to use expedited screening at U.S. airports, with no impact reported on other TSA services.
