A Transportation Security Administration official is accusing the agency of failing to adequately protect airport screeners from the new coronavirus, endangering both the officers and the traveling public.The top TSA official in Kansas, Jay Brainard, says the TSA’s actions amount to “gross mismanagement."“TSA staff at airports both became a significant carrier to spread the pandemic and were themselves improperly protected from the pandemic,” Brainard's lawyer, Tom Devine, said in a complaint filed with the Office of Special Counsel, which handles whistleblower complaints.The special counsel has ordered TSA's parent agency, the Homeland Security Department, to conduct an investigation.The special counsel’s office declined to comment.
