Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman is calling on DHS to boost security at the NFL draft set to take place in Pittsburgh later this month.
Fetterman sent a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin urging him to redesignate the Draft as a Level Two SEAR event “given the changing threat environment” due to the ongoing conflict in Iran. The NFL draft will take place from April 23rd-25th, and it is expected to draw over 700-thousand fans to open-air events. According to Fetterman, the escalated designation “would provide greater coordination and deployment of federal, state, and local law enforcement.”
