I am appalled by the TSA’s recent decision to allow knives back into the aircraft cabin. As a Flight Attendant and the last line of defense in the cabin, I believe that these proposed changes could potentially endanger passengers and crewmembers and the we work so hard to keep safe and secure.

Flight attendants across the country are leading the charge — No knives on planes!
