What it does
The Guard the Skies Act would authorize the National Guard to protect certain facilities and assets from unmanned aircraft by amending the Homeland Security Act of 2002 and titles 10 and 32 of the United States Code. It would allow the Secretary of Defense to authorize National Guard members to take action against unmanned aircraft threats upon request from a state’s chief executive officer, provided the members are ordered to duty under Title 10 or Title 32 and assigned relevant duties. The bill also modifies related provisions to include the Department of Defense in coordination efforts and expands eligibility for certain reserve components to be ordered to active duty for such missions.
