HB+5

HB 5-  **Title** : **__ The National Aviation Security Act __** Sponsors **:** Jillian Filarski and Camilla Brown ** Purpose **: The purpose of this bill is to minimize the amount of terrorism in the United States by increasing security in airports and airplanes by stationing highly trained U.S. on __U.S. airline__ planes entering or leaving the United States, who would need to act if there is any suspicious behavior or threats. With our bill we are wanting to put 2 or 3 U.S. Marshals to secure the safety of people present on the planes but also the U.S. citizens by preventing any type of terrorism that is similar to 9/11.  Eligibility : The National Aviation Security Act will benefit:
 * People living in the U.S.- These people will be protected from terrorist attacks if there happens to be one around them.
 * People traveling to and from the U.S.- These people will be protected from terrorists or hijackers while they are traveling on the planes.
 * Economy- Because the attack on 9/11 cost billions, we can help prevent paying to fix it once again, and with the way our economy is now, we could not afford it.

Terms and Benefits
