Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

The Guard the Skies Act authorizes the National Guard to protect certain facilities and assets from unmanned aircraft (drones) at the request of state governors. The bill amends the Homeland Security Act of 2002 and federal law to allow the Secretary of Defense to authorize National Guard members to take protective actions against drones when ordered to duty under federal or state authority. It also modifies provisions governing the activation of Selected Reserve and Individual Ready Reserve members to include drone-protection missions as a basis for callup outside of war or national emergency.
