There are 100 senators and 435 representatives in the United States Congress.
If all of them are accorded similar TFRs, these TFRs together would cover an
area about half the size of Louisiana (just over 20,000 square miles). Is
that really what you want?

Why are there no restrictions on road vehicles within a 3-nm radius? And what
