The bill averts disruptions to our nation’s aviation system for the next fifteen months while improving travel security, promoting tourism, and advancing unmanned aircraft systems research and development. Senator Heller issued the following statement after Senate passage: “With millions of visitors traveling to our state each year, excessive wait times at airports can have a dramatic impact on travel and tourism in Nevada. I am pleased this legislation ensuring our nation’s airports have the staff, overtime flexibility, technology, and canine teams necessary to safely and efficiently move travelers will soon be enacted into law. In addition, the extension of the six unmanned aircraft systems test sites including Nevada’s ensures our state will continue to serve as a leader of innovation for this exciting technology. While I wish the House had acted on the more robust Senate-passed bill, this bicameral agreement will serve our Nevada communities well,” said Senator Heller. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
