Congress passed the FAA bill. http://www.mobile-tech-today.com/story.xhtml?story_id=82075
"The FAA is also required under the bill to provide military, commercial and privately-owned drones with expanded access to U.S. airspace currently reserved for manned aircraft by Sept. 30, 2015. That means permitting unmanned drones controlled by remote Relevant Products/Services operators on the ground to fly in the same airspace as airliners, cargo planes, business Relevant Products/Services jets and private aircraft."
Which all seems pretty harmless until a drone smacks into a Delta flight.....
