Bills Introduced – 07-10-11

Twenty bills were introduced yesterday in the House; the Senate had already left for the weekend. Only one of those may be of specific interest to readers of this blog:

HR 3025 To amend title 18, United States Code, to provide a criminal penalty for launching drones that interfere with fighting wildfires affecting Federal property, and for other purposes. Rep. Cook, Paul [R-CA-8] 

While recent news reports about fire-fighting flights being canceled due to the presence of drones in the fire area make this a potentially important bill to fire-fighters it is the presence of the ‘and for other purposes’ at the end of the title that caught my attention. Lots of room for other drone actions there.
