Mr. President, my distinguished colleague from North Carolina, Mr. Tillis, is correct. Chairman Thune and I did agree to accept this amendment as part of a package of 26 amendments agreed to by all but one of our colleagues. While I am disappointed that these amendments could not clear the full Senate, including one that preserves certain State and local powers to deal with public safety concerns regarding drones, I will work with Chairman Thune to address this and other issues in the conference committee once the House has acted. ____________________
