House Bill No. by Representative McMakin amends the existing law regarding the unlawful use of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) in Louisiana. The bill specifically adds the state capitol building, the governor's mansion, and state or local jails, prisons, or other correctional facilities that detain juveniles or adults as locations where the use of an unmanned aircraft system is prohibited without the express written consent of the person in charge of those facilities.

The proposed changes retain the current provisions of the law while expanding the list of prohibited locations for UAS usage. This amendment aims to enhance security measures around sensitive government and correctional facilities by explicitly prohibiting unauthorized drone activity in these areas.
