I don't know. Maybe, maybe not.

But the overall principle is to define which passengers can be treated as "low risk" based on a reasonable standard. If that passenger has undergone a vetting process that allows TSA to reasonably determine that the individual is not a risk, then this should be the basis for a less intrusive screening methodology than a passenger who has not been scrutinized or whose risk potential has not been ruled out. The point is that all passengers would still undergo a screening process. No one is exempt. It's a matter of being smart about which ones have to undergo a more thorough process and which ones undergo a less intrusive process.
