My guess is we see an uptick in gate ID checks, random silliness, more two-by-two busy work mall walking patrols and less lanes opened merely as a political ploy, with no true reduction in staffing.

One cable television news report stated that sequestration would put a hiring freeze on TSA and they'd be out 1,000 clerks come Memorial Day, Bravo I say!!! A small step for TSA a giant leap for travelers.
