AFGE is the union for the TSA. Do a simple search. It's all there. There are many advantages to being a union member. In this instance I would guess that it's a "closed shop". You may not have a choice whether to join or not. But if you do have a choice keep in mind that this may not be a "welcome sign" with your coworkers if you choose not to join.
Note that you can also do a quick search to find the pay scale for a TSO. To my mind, starting salary is not great. It would help if you are single. And, of course, it would also depend upon your location. In most big cities, your living standards would probably be... not that great. It would also depend upon the standard of living in any particular state.
Also: have you explored the type of job it is and its challenges? And the hours may not be good. But after putting some years in the hours may improve along with the salary.
A c0lle/universoty degree would in all probability be advantageous in terms of chances for advancement. Public Administration is not a bad major for your purposes.
