Congressman Gregory Meeks Responds to JFK International Airport Breach
JAMAICA, NY — Congressman Gregory W. Meeks (D-NY) released the following statement on
the recent security breach at John F. Kennedy (JFK) International Airport:
“The recent security breach at John F. Kennedy
(JFK) International Airport is of extreme concern we must figure out how this
could have happened. Whatever failure that occurred at the perimeter
intrusion detection system at JFK International Airport should be fixed
immediately. We cannot afford to risk the safety of the millions of
passengers that travel through JFK Airport and constituents of the 6th
Congressional District who work and live near the airport. We need a
system that is not virtually safe, but completely safe and dependable. After
spending $100 million at a time when we have critical security concerns at our
airports and severe budgetary constraints in the State of New York, we must
ensure that our investments into that security are reliable. This
incident should not have happened and I am looking forward to results of the
investigation.”
