ALBANY, N.Y.—Sen. Charles Schumer called Wednesday for daily federal screening of airport and airline workers for weapons following last month’s arrests of five men accused of smuggling guns through the New York and Atlanta airports.
The New York Democrat, joined in Washington by Brooklyn District Attorney Kenneth Thompson, said he’s asking the Transportation Security Administration to immediately require all U.S. airports to screen staff when they start work.
"We just can't be too careful."
