Lawmaker Presses Pentagon, DOJ, DHS, and FAA for Unified Plan to Counter Rising Drone Threats in U.S. Airspace

Rep. Gabe Vasquez warns that cartel, criminal, and unknown drone incursions demand an all-of-government counter-UAS strategy — not fragmented authorities.

A growing number of lawmakers and national security experts warn that the United States lacks a comprehensive, interagency strategy to protect American communities from increasingly sophisticated drone threats, as uncrewed systems proliferate across the homeland. This week, Rep. Gabe Vasquez (D-N.M.) escalated pressure on top federal officials to close that gap.

In a letter to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Attorney General Pam Bondi, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, and FAA Administrator Bryan Bedford, Vasquez urged the administration to jointly craft “new, clear, and effective federal guidance” to counter illicit drone activity threatening public safety and national security.

“This is a national security issue, and I’m calling on the administration to give law enforcement the tools they need to keep our communities safe,” Vasquez told 'TELL IT LIKE IT IS' Defense News.
