I am forwarding this from a post on another site I am a member of. This is extremely important for all UAS operators in the US. Diane Feinstein is pushing a bill that will have a catastrophic affect on all US based UAS operators. Please share this with as many UAS sites or groups as possible. Strength in numbers is our ally

Sharpen your #2s, make sure your fountain pen has ink, find the email addresses of your Congress Critters, or even use Carrier Pigeons (oh wait, they're extinc...t. Never mind). I don't care how, but find a way to contact your Senators and Representative.
But in all seriousness, this is an industry killing bill. If Feinstein's bill is introduced and passed in with it's current language, it will KILL THIS INDUSTRY!!!
We have to put aside our petty differences, and band together to get this shut down, and shut down HARD!
We have some folks in DC who will try to get her to understand the consequences of this, but if that fails, I don't even want to think about that.
Read these and try and visualize two years from now if it comes to pass.

And the fact that the National Conference of State Legislatures is looking "forward to working with you" should make everyone here fear for their future.
