TSA refuses to screen air cargo

Mark Ashley says:
200701192115 U.S. Congress to the TSA: "Please screen the cargo that goes into planes. We'll be safer." TSA response: "No."

We're safer if they DON'T screen the cargo, I guess, and focus their energies on taking away water, yogurt, and semi-gelatinous pie.
