This bill proposes to amend the existing statutes regarding the Advanced Air Mobility Fund by adding a new allowable use for the fund. Specifically, it would permit the purchase of advanced air mobility vehicles for border security purposes, with a stipulation that priority be given to counties located along the state's international border. This addition aims to enhance border security through the utilization of advanced air mobility technology.

The current law, as outlined in section 28-8604, allows for the use of fund monies primarily for purchasing advanced air mobility vehicles for testing and demonstration purposes and for constructing vertiports. The proposed changes would expand these uses to include border security, thereby updating the statute to reflect new priorities in state funding and resource allocation.
