New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy has reached out to President Biden to request additional federal resources to investigate the recent surge in drone sightings across the state. The issue first arose on November 18 when drones were spotted in various parts of New Jersey. Governor Murphy expressed his gratitude to President Biden for addressing the matter but emphasized the need for more resources to fully comprehend the nature of this activity.
In his letter to the President, Murphy highlighted the challenges posed by the limited authority of state and local law enforcement agencies in responding to drone incidents. The ongoing reports of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) sightings have generated more questions than answers, fueling speculation and conspiracy theories on social media platforms.
