Lawmakers are demanding more answers from federal authorities as drone sightings continue to be reported in different parts of the country.
A New Jersey congressman is pushing for the FBI, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration to disclose more information to the public on the mysterious sightings.
"We have no evidence at this time that the reported drone sightings pose a national security or a public safety threat, or have a foreign nexus," White House national security communications adviser John Kirby told reporters at the daily White House press briefing.
Gottheimer also demanded to know the origin of the drones and that federal agencies work closely with state and local law enforcement. More "classified briefings" on the ongoing investigation are expected next week, according to Gottheimer.
