Key members of the U.S. Congress, including Representatives Elise Stefanik, John Moolenaar, and Rick Crawford, are urging the Trump administration to expedite a national security review of Chinese-made drones amid growing concerns over their risks to U.S. national security. This push is part of a broader effort to potentially ban these technologies later this year. Senator Rick Scott expressed support for recent policies aimed at removing Chinese drones from U.S. government use, emphasizing the protection of American warfighters. The Department of Defense is also addressing concerns about Chinese ownership of farmland near U.S. military bases, highlighting the link between food security and national security. Lawmakers and officials have underscored the importance of preventing Chinese companies from acquiring assets close to critical defense infrastructure.

THANK YOU, @POTUS and @SecDef, for taking action to keep our country safe. I fought for 6 years to get Communist China’s drones out of our government. These policies are welcome changes that put our warfighters and America first! 🇺🇸 https://t.co/EBNpmLbhLM
