Occurrences
"That is why I am proud to help lead this legislation to expand counter-drone training in the United States."
Evidence
Kaptur’s office said she and colleagues introduced the Guard the Skies Act to expand counter-drone training in the United States.
Kaptur said she was proud to help lead the bill to expand counter-drone training and strengthen national security.
Assessments
Kaptur materially supported and helped introduce the Guard the Skies Act in the 119th Congress on May 7, 2026, and the bill is framed as expanding counter-drone training and National Guard counter-UAS authority in the United States. However, the available evidence shows introduction and advocacy, not enactment or implemented training expansion. Because the promised outcome was to support legislation, this is a serious legislative attempt, but absent passage or implementation it should not be scored as delivered.
