Rand Paul (R- Ky. ) blocked an effort by Senate Democrats to pass legislation to authorize and provide resources to state and local authorities to track drones that have been sighted over New Jersey , New York and other states.

Paul argued the bill would have expanded the government’s surveillance powers and downplayed concerns that the drones pose a threat to the public.
