The Transportation Security Administration will stay on the job at Orlando International Airport, if a governing committee gets its way.

The group voted Monday morning to recommend keeping the TSA instead of going with a private security firm.

We've heard numerous stories about problems with the TSA at other airports across the country, from long lines to improper customer screening, to even stealing.

Rep. Alan Grayson, D-Florida, said he agrees with the committee's recommendations, adding any change would be a big mistake at Orlando International.

"Look, if it's not broken, don't fix it. If it's not broken, don't break it," Grayson said, adding he stands behind the Orlando International Airport Committee and its decision to recommend keeping the TSA on the job at MCO instead of seeking a private security company.

Grayson, whose Congressional District 9 includes Orlando International Airport, said it is important to maintain consistency when it comes to security of the flying public.

"It prevents a disaster that would come from a single mistake that could lead to a terrorist attack," Grayson said. "It is important for us to keep that system in tact and not experiment with it."

The congressman acknowledged there have been problems with the TSA at other airports — problems that led nearby Orlando-Sanford International Airport to scrap the TSA in favor of a private security firm — but Grayson said surveys have been favorable for the TSA at Orlando International, and this recommendation comes with some performance benchmarks that a third party will monitor and measure for the TSA to meet.

"It's always a work in progress, and I think things are getting better all the time," Grayson said. "The thing to understand is that there is a high degree of customer satisfaction with the existing system, and it has kept us safe."

The recommendation also has the support of Rep. John Mica, R-Florida, who heads the House Transportation Committee and said he will work over the next two years to have Orlando and all United States airports conduct private passenger screening under federal supervision.

Orlando International Airport's governing board will review the recommendation to keep the TSA, and could make a final decision in April.
