Billionaire Celeb Stopped From Giving Cash to TSA Workers

Tyler Perry’s efforts to help TSA workers have been rebuffed.

Atlanta local outlet 11Alive reported that the billionaire mogul, a resident of the city and owner of Tyler Perry Studios, was seen arriving at Hartsfield-Jackson Airport with cash to distribute to its TSA workers on Thursday. According to the outlet’s sources, the cash amounts Perry was ready to hand out were “significant.”

However, due to federal regulations prohibiting the acceptance of gifts while on duty, the TSA workers were not allowed to accept the cash. The outlet reported that Perry instead used the visit to chat with and thank the workers, which still provided a much-needed morale boost.
