I just got this

Dear members,
Last month, we shared new information about the FAA's UAS registration requirement, which Congress has reinstated.
Today, we are writing to let you know that President Trump has signed this bill making UAS registration a federal requirement again.

AMA I would guess, I am a member of the same and I received the same email.
Drones have to be registered, same as before. To clarify, the AMA sent an email to it’s members informing them that drones will have to be registered with the FAA.

Initially, the FAA wanted all drones to be registered. The court struck it down. It is now a federal requirement again that all drones regardless of their usage be registered with the FAA. The limit is .55 pounds and under

I’m a little confused...I went to the FAA site and it still has the exact same graphic that says if it’s over 250g you have to register....unless you’re flying under the special rule for Model aircraft.  Is it not going into effect till the year ticks over or something?
