Some select airports , and only for certain people .

Interesting , both can’t be true
🤔

Travelers at some airports, including LaGuardia in New York City, may no longer need to undergo one of the most loathed requirements of security screening. For the first time in nearly 20 years, the Transportation Security Administration is letting people keep their shoes on.

The agency has not officially announced this change and did not confirm the new policy, which appears to be taking effect at airports across the country.
Travelers pay for the privilege for keeping their shoes on, one of the hallmarks of the TSA’s PreCheck program, which costs roughly $80 for five years and grants expedited screening.
