Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., who chairs the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, said an agreement to allow the U.S. and Europe to share more airline passenger information will make air travel between the U.S. and Europe safer. "The agreement ensures that airlines will provide DHS access to specific passenger information 96 hours in advance of their flights to the U.S. -- instead of the current 72 hours -- so it can be compared to our terrorist watchlists and criminal and immigration databases," he said.
