[Congressional Bills 118th Congress] [From the U.S. Government Publishing Office] [H. Res. 34 Introduced in House (IH)] 118th CONGRESS 1st Session H. RES. 34 Recognizing the roles and contributions of the men and women in the public safety community who operate unmanned aircraft systems. _______________________________________________________________________ IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES January 12, 2023 Mr. Norman submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure _______________________________________________________________________ RESOLUTION Recognizing the roles and contributions of the men and women in the public safety community who operate unmanned aircraft systems. Whereas the operation of unmanned aircraft systems in the national airspace system is rapidly increasing, which raises opportunities for public safety and government officials; Whereas professional operators of such systems that are operating in the public safety arena must be highly trained and skilled to provide the necessary level of care to support their communities; Whereas becoming such an operator requires completing the Federal Aviation Administration part 107, or acquiring a Federal Aviation Administration certificate of authorization; and Whereas the purposes of ``National Unmanned Aircraft System Operator Public Safety Day'', celebrated on January 13, 2023, are-- (1) to raise public awareness of the unquantifiable contributions of the operators of unmanned aircraft systems acting in the best interest of public safety in their communities; and (2) to promote greater respect and understanding for the proficiency and commitment of operators of unmanned aircraft systems required to assist law enforcement with successful support: Now, therefore, be it Resolved, That the House of Representatives-- (1) thanks operators of unmanned aircraft systems working in the area of public safety in the United States; and (2) promotes the profession by encouraging the public safety community and public officials to recognize ``National Unmanned Aircraft System Operator Public Safety Day''.
