Counter-UAS Authority Extension Act

This bill extends the existing authority of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) to use counter-unmanned aircraft systems (counter-UAS) for security purposes. It amends the Homeland Security Act of 2002 by changing the expiration date of these authorities from September 30, 2025, to September 30, 2028. The extension directly affects DHS and DOJ operations involving drone detection, monitoring, and mitigation capabilities. No new policies or funding are created - only the timeline for current authorities is extended.
