The bill adds a new section, 13A-7-94.1, to the Code of Alabama 1975, which authorizes the Department of Corrections to take specific actions against unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) that operate in violation of the law. The measures that the Department may employ include jamming (in compliance with federal regulations), hacking, physical capture, and any other reasonable actions to neutralize, intercept, disable, or disrupt UAS. This provision aims to enhance the Department's ability to manage and mitigate potential threats posed by unauthorized drone activity.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that the new section does not alter or eliminate any existing legal immunities or defenses available to the Department of Corrections or its personnel. The act is set to take effect on June 1, 2026, following its passage in the House and Senate. The bill does not include any deletions from current law.
