Bill 119 HR 1386, also known as the Department of State Domestic Protection Mission Act, aims to create a new department within the State Department focused on addressing the use of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) and unmanned aircraft (UA) within the United States. The bill seeks to establish a Domestic Protection Mission within the State Department to oversee and coordinate efforts to protect against potential threats posed by UAS and UA. The legislation outlines the responsibilities of the new department, which include conducting research and analysis on UAS and UA threats, developing strategies to mitigate these threats, and coordinating with other federal agencies and international partners to enhance domestic protection measures. The bill also calls for the establishment of a UAS and UA threat assessment program to identify potential risks and vulnerabilities. Additionally, the Department of State Domestic Protection Mission Act requires the department to provide regular reports to Congress on its activities and findings, as well as to collaborate with relevant stakeholders to ensure a comprehensive and effective approach to UAS and UA security. Overall, the bill aims to enhance the United States' ability to address the growing challenges posed by UAS and UA technology, and to ensure the safety and security of the American public.
