Drone Activity In PA Prompts Fitzpatrick Demand For Federal Action

DOYLESTOWN, PA ? Bucks County Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick is urging immediate federal action to address the mounting concerns surrounding unexplained drone activity in the Philadelphia region and in neighboring New Jersey:

?The growing reports of unexplained drone activity in the Philadelphia region and our neighboring state of New Jersey demand immediate and decisive federal action," said Fitzpatrick in a statement. "As chairman of the National Intelligence Enterprise Subcommittee on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI), I am treating this matter with the urgency it requires and taking proactive steps to safeguard our public safety and national security.

"I am actively coordinating with federal law enforcement agencies and have requested a classified briefing to receive a comprehensive understanding of these incidents. This is not a time for complacency ? it is a time for action and accountability," he said.

The congressman added, "While initial briefings indicate no immediate threat to public safety, I take seriously the legitimate concerns of my constituents, our neighbors in New Jersey, and the broader American public. I am calling on our federal agencies to immediately increase resources dedicated to investigating this escalating issue and to deliver a thorough public briefing. Transparency is not optional ? it is a necessity. I will continue to push for swift action, full accountability, and clear communication to ensure the safety, security, and peace of mind of our community and our nation. The American people deserve nothing less.?
