A bipartisan group of federal lawmakers is advocating for the incorporation of counter-drone and drone-detection technology for state and local law enforcement agencies in a year-end continuing resolution related to unmanned aircraft systems.
The initiative, led by Rep. Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania and Rep. Andrew Garbarino of New York, involves a letter addressed to House Speaker Mike Johnson and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, urging prompt action on counter-unmanned aircraft systems (C-UAS) legislation.
