China dominates U.S. commercial drone sales, with DJI, the world's largest drone maker, accounting for over half of them.

In September, the House voted to ban DJI drones, while the Defense Department added DJI to a list of companies allegedly linked to Beijing's military. DJI disputes these claims, including allegations of forced labor and data security risks, stating its manufacturing processes comply with regulations.
