Can the TSA ask for my personal info even though I'm not traveling/flying?

I work at an airport and TSA is asking for proof of citizenship and education and I guess my field technically falls under transportation but I don't believe them asking for my personal information falls under their jurisdiction.

If it was CBP it'd be a different story in regards to citizenship. If it was the Labor Board (?) I'd co-op with my education. My direct employer already has all that info.

I don't feel comfortable providing them with my information and will not provide it if they aren't legally entitled to it.
