        appeal such decision and correct erroneous information 
        contained in CAPPS II;
            (2) the underlying error rate of the government and private 
        data bases that will be used both to establish identity and

        number of false positives that will result in a significant 
        number of passengers being treated mistakenly or security 
        resources being diverted;
            (3) the TSA has stress-tested and demonstrated the efficacy 
        and accuracy of all search tools in CAPPS II and has

        population of these cities and States; and
            (6) the monetary needs of emergency responders are directly 
        related to the amount of people they are responsible to 
        protect.
    (b) It is the sense of the Senate that the Secretary of Homeland 
Security should take into account tourist population as a factor when 
determining resource needs and potential vulnerabilities for the
