What’s happening with Border Drone Threat Assessment Act?
The Border Drone Threat Assessment Act remains stalled in the Senate after the Select Committee on Intelligence filed a report on July 28, 2025. The Senate must now schedule a floor vote to advance the bill, but limited time on the legislative calendar acts as a binding constraint. While reaching the committee report stage is a significant milestone that most bills do not achieve, the lack of action since July 28, 2025, shows that floor time remains difficult to secure.
