There are THOUSANDS of rogue drone flights over NFL games every year, delaying games and putting fans at greater risk. Ranking Member @peters.senate.gov and Senator Joni Ernst are pushing to pass their bill that would help protect Americans from drones that pose a threat to our safety.

Everyone agrees: the Senate MUST pass Ranking Member @peters.senate.gov and Senator Mike Rounds bipartisan bill to renew vital national security protections. We appreciate National Cyber Director Sean Cairncross for helping promote this critical bill.

Since taking office, President Trump has fired 19 independent Inspectors General — now, he’s trying to replace them with partisan loyalists who “want to faithfully execute the President’s agenda.” Ranking Member @peters.senate.gov is working hard to protect our independent oversight.

Ranking Member @peters.senate.gov and @hassan.senate.gov agree: we need to protect our independent oversight. Watch them at today’s HSGAC hearing, featuring several IG nominees – all of whom would replace those illegally fired by Trump earlier this year.
