## What this funds

This Pricing Change adds 15 new TSA PreCheck Application Program fee-funded positions to multiple TSA offices in support of the program: promoting program growth, investing in the TSA PreCheck Application Program customer experience, and focusing on efforts to differentiate the experience at PreCheck lanes from standard lanes. The increase results in no net- change to the funding allocation, as general expense revenue will support the estimated pay cost of $2.8M.
