Urges federal government to develop protocols for State and local law enforcement to respond to drones.
This New Jersey state resolution (SCR 119) urges federal agencies to develop guidelines for state and local police to respond to unidentified drones. It cites recent drone sightings over sensitive locations like military bases and reservoirs in New Jersey as justification. Currently, federal law limits local law enforcement's ability to independently investigate or address drone threats. The resolution requests the Federal Aviation Administration and Transportation Department create protocols enabling state/local agencies to better manage these aerial security concerns.
