The bill amends Arkansas Code Title 14, Chapter 356, Subchapter 1 to introduce a new section concerning expedited security screenings at public airports. It defines key terms such as "airline," "expedited security screening," "public airport," "public airport operator," and "vendor." The legislation allows public airport operators to enter into agreements with vendors to provide expedited security screenings, provided that the vendor has secured a dedicated Transportation Security Administration (TSA) security lane for this purpose. Additionally, public airport operators can collaborate with airlines to offer expedited screenings exclusively for their passengers without imposing extra fees on them.

Furthermore, the bill includes a provision for retroactivity, stating that it applies to all agreements made by public airport operators on or after January 1, 2025. This ensures that any relevant agreements established from that date forward will be governed by the new regulations outlined in the bill.
