I can't see how she will be truly effective in controlling who has access to RC drones. From that statement, would she want to regulate recreational flyers at clubs, too? We will have to wait and see, of course. The AMA may not be that big, but it has proven its self to be capable of forming a strong lobby, and for this reason I seriously doubt she'll succeed.
