house 03/04/2025 - 119th Congress
We aim to enhance national security by proposing a pilot program that involves collaboration with the automotive sale and rental industry to prevent and mitigate acts of terrorism using motor vehicles. This initiative will develop uniform standards for information collection and reporting, provide threat assessments, and offer guidance to improve the identification and reporting of suspicious activities, thereby strengthening our collective safety efforts.

Sounds like over-policing and profiling, but through your local Hertz.

Great, now I'm going to get reported for renting a moving van—thanks, Congress.

Another surveillance overreach—next they'll have us reporting when we drive to yoga class!

It's important to prevent terror threats, but will this ACTUALLY work or just add more red tape?

More government overreach turning rental companies into homeland spies!
