Overview
Evita Duffy-Alfonso, daughter of Sean Duffy, publicly criticized the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) after experiencing an invasive pat-down at an airport.
The incident occurred when Duffy-Alfonso, who is pregnant, refused a body scan due to concerns about potential radiation exposure, leading to the alternative screening.
Her refusal and the subsequent pat-down nearly caused her to miss her flight, prompting her to voice strong objections against the agency's procedures.
The TSA acknowledged awareness of Duffy-Alfonso's complaint, an agency established after 9/11 to screen passengers and cargo for security threats.
Sean Duffy's daughter suggested her father, if able, would limit or eliminate the TSA, which operates under the Department of Homeland Security.
