华盛顿4月6日电（路透社）——根据预算文件，白宫提议在拥有6万名员工的运输安全管理局（负责机场安保运营）中裁减超过9400名员工，并削减逾15亿美元预算。
这些细节是国土安全部预算文件的一部分，该部门负责监管 TSA，而这份文件是白宫下一财年预算提案的组成部分。

国会将于本月晚些时候就白宫的预算申请举行听证会，议员们的目标是在财年9月30日结束前达成新的预算协议。部分共和党议员曾推动全面私有化 TSA。
此次预算细节与国会当前财年国土安全部资金僵局无关，该僵局曾导致机场延误，原因是 TSA 员工未能领到工资。
特朗普总统于周五提议，要求小型机场使用私人安保替代 TSA，以此作为私有化这家2001年9·11事件后成立的机构的第一步。白宫表示，这一调整将减少 TSA 逾4500个工作岗位。TSA 还提议通过提高效率、取消出口通道人员配置以及削减冗余岗位，再裁减4800个工作岗位。

裁员计划将为该机构节省逾5亿美元成本。
此项提案将把该机构78亿美元的预算削减约20%。此前，在去年秋季和今年春季的政府资金中断期间，TSA 已有超过1600名员工离职。美国机场约有5万名安检员属于 TSA 雇员。
特朗普一直对 TSA 持批评态度。他在2025年就职首日就解雇了该局局长戴维·佩科斯克，且从未提名接任人选。
去年，白宫曾提出将 TSA 预算削减2.47亿美元，称“TSA 在实施侵犯美国人隐私和尊严的侵入式安检措施的同时，始终未能通过审计”。
拜登政府曾扩大 TSA 规模。2024年，TSA 安检旅客达9.04亿人次，创历史新高，较2023年增长5%。

WASHINGTON, April 6 (Reuters) – The White House is proposing to cut more than 9,400 workers and just over $1.5 billion from the 60,000-employee Transportation Security Administration that handles airport security operations, according to budget documents.
The details were part of a budget document for the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees TSA, that is part of the White House budget proposal for the next fiscal year.

Congress will hold hearings on the White House budget request later this month as lawmakers aim to reach a new budget deal before the fiscal year ends on September 30. Some Republican lawmakers have pushed to privatize TSA completely.
The budget details were unrelated to the funding impasse in Congress over DHS for the current year, which has caused airport delays as TSA workers went without paychecks.
President Donald Trump on Friday proposed requiring smaller airports to use private security in place of TSA as a first step toward privatizing the agency created after the September 11, 2001, attacks. The White House said this change would cut the TSA payroll by more than 4,500 jobs. The TSA proposes to cut another 4,800 jobs by improving efficiency, ending staffing at exit lanes and eliminating redundancies.

The employee cuts would save more than $500 million in agency costs.
The proposal would cut the agency’s $7.8 billion budget by about 20% and comes after TSA has lost more than 1,600 workers during government funding disruptions last fall and this spring. About 50,000 security screeners at U.S. airports are TSA employees.
Trump has been critical of the TSA. He fired its head, David Pekoske, on his first day in office in 2025 and has never nominated a replacement.
Last year, the White House said it wanted funding cut for the TSA by $247 million, saying the “TSA has consistently failed audits while implementing intrusive screening measures that violate Americans’ privacy and dignity”.
The Biden administration had increased the size of the TSA. The TSA screened 904 million passengers in 2024, which was a record high and a 5% increase over 2023.
