    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Traveling Parents Screening 
Consistency Act of 2019''.

SEC. 2. COMPTROLLER GENERAL REVIEW OF IMPLEMENTATION BY TRANSPORTATION 
              SECURITY ADMINISTRATION OF SCREENING PROTOCOLS RELATING 
              TO BREAST MILK AND FORMULA.

    (a) In General.--Not later than one year after the date of the 
enactment of this Act, the Comptroller General of the United States 
shall conduct a review of--
            (1) the implementation by the Transportation Security 
        Administration (in this section referred to as ``TSA'') of the 
        Bottles and Breastfeeding Equipment Screening Act (Public Law 
        114-293; 49 U.S.C. 44901 note); and
            (2) the effectiveness of TSA in ensuring the clarity of 
        screening protocols relating to, and the consistency of 
        screening of, breast milk and other liquids for the consumption 
        of infants, including formula, purified deionized water, and 
        juice.
    (b) Elements.--The review required by subsection (a) shall 
include--
            (1) an assessment of--
                    (A) whether TSA effectively manages the consistency 
                of the application of protocols to the screening of 
                breast milk and other liquids described in subsection 
                (a)(2);
                    (B) the need for TSA to update and revise 
                procedures for screening breast milk and other liquids 
                described in subsection (a)(2);
                    (C) whether TSA effectively tracks passenger 
                complaints related to such screening to monitor trends 
                and identify inconsistencies;
                    (D) the practices of TSA with respect to 
                communications and information sharing with passengers, 
                air carriers, and airports relating to protocols for 
                such screening; and
                    (E) the policies of TSA regarding the screening of 
                passengers with nursing products, including the extent 
                to which such passengers are more likely to receive 
                secondary screening; and
            (2) make recommendations for improving the practices of TSA 
        relating to such screening.

            Passed the Senate July 29, 2020.

            Attest:

                                                             Secretary.
