Sen. Chuck Schumer is worried about the TSA’s proposal to stop screening passengers at some airports across the country.

The plan would get rid of passenger screenings at some small and medium-size airports that serve aircraft with 60 seats or fewer. If the passengers on those planes connect at a larger airport, they would instead be screened there.

But Schumer said he fears the change would be a “disaster waiting to happen.”

“Terrorists look for our soft spots and weakest links,” Schumer told The Post. “If you leave some of these smaller airports unsecured, they can get on planes there and then travel to bigger airports. You can’t have this kind of hole in security. It’s just a very bad idea.”

Schumer said the lessons of 9/11 show why screening is so crucial.

TSA officials have said they are only considering the proposal and have not yet made any decisions.
