What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Thomas Massie and Eric Burlison co-introduced the Flock-Off Act. The proposal would bar federal money from paying for covered camera systems, including their installation, operation, maintenance, and related data services. The legislation specifically targets federal spending, not imposing a blanket ban on the technology itself.
