Page "Federal Air Marshal Service" Paragraph 47

Ultimately, one of Asa Hutchinson's final decisions before resigning as head of DHS's Border and Transportation Security Directorate was the issuance of a memorandum determining that air marshals would not also be ICE special agents.

The move to TSA was effective October 1, 2005.
