Contact Congress about H.R. 390: ACERO Act

NASA would work on better tools for aerial wildfire response. The bill focuses on safer aircraft coordination, live data sharing, and limits on some foreign-made drones.

Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.

ACERO Act is a Senate bill in committee. The latest recorded action: Received in the Senate and Read twice and referred to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation.

Latest action on H.R. 390: Received in the Senate and Read twice and referred to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects wildfire response teams that use aircraft during fires. It also affects NASA, other public agencies, and groups that help manage wildfires. Drone makers and vendors could also feel the impact because the bill limits NASA purchases from some foreign entities.

Why this matters: Wildfires can move fast, and aircraft can save lives when teams coordinate them well. This bill tries to improve that coordination with NASA research, live data tools, and shared planning. The benefits are not guaranteed. They depend on whether the technology works and whether response agencies use it.

Key provisions in H.R. 390

  • NASA’s Administrator must use the ACERO project to improve aerial wildfire response. ACERO stands for Advanced Capabilities for Emergency Response Operations.
  • NASA must research better aircraft tools and airspace systems. The goal is to help manage, separate, and coordinate aircraft during wildfires.
  • NASA must work on live information sharing for wildfire teams. That includes better ways to exchange data during a fire.
  • NASA must help build a shared platform for wildfire response. It would show where aerial assets, such as planes, helicopters, and drones, are during a fire.
  • NASA must create a shared operating plan for aerial wildfire work. The plan can include federal, state, and local agencies.
