Congressman Darin LaHood, along with other lawmakers, has reintroduced the Drones for First Responders Act. This legislation aims to support the U.S. drone industry by reducing reliance on foreign adversaries and enhancing national security.
Rep. LaHood emphasized the threat posed by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to national security through their drones used by first responders. "The Chinese Communist Party is a clear and present threat to our national security and relying on their drones for our first responders is not only dangerous, but unacceptable," he stated. He expressed pride in supporting the act to ensure safe equipment and bolster American innovation.
