(CNN)– The union that represents TSA workers is suing the agency for a lack of transparency about the expansion of a new airport security program. The program called Gold+ allows for partnerships with for-profit companies. The American Federation of Government Employees which represents about 4 7,000 TSA workers at more than 400 U.S. airports seeks records connected to the new program.

Roughly 20 airports already use privatized screening which aims to reduce disruptions from government funding lapses amid shutdowns.
