The root cause of all the TSA delays is the creation of the "fast lane" for frequent travelers and first class ticket holders.

If lawmakers had to wait on the same line as the rest of us whenever they went to and from D.C., they would have allocated funding to fix this problem log ago.  Instead, they create a situation where people can pay for quicker access to law enforcement, be it by buying a first class ticket, or by applying for Global Entry.

As long as they walk to the front of the line, the line won't be an issue for them.
