00:00We spoke to you in December. You sounded pretty alarmed by what was happening in the skies

00:05above your town. Are you now feeling reassured, having heard what we heard on Tuesday night

00:10from the White House?

00:14Absolutely not. There's nobody here in New Jersey that's reassured, including the 500

00:17mayors that are still waiting for answers from our state government, from our federal

00:22government. I'm glad that finally the White House issued a statement, but that statement

00:26was all of a sentence or two. And frankly, as I mentioned before, it's really disappointing

00:32to find out that we still have more questions than answers. Nothing's been settled yet,

00:37and we still have drones flying over our homes here in northern New Jersey.
