Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Disclosure Act of 2023
This is pretty monumental legislation being introduced by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, some highlights of the proposed amendment
All Federal Government records concerning unidentified anomalous phenomena should carry a presumption of immediate disclosure and all records should be eventually disclosed to enable the public to become fully informed about the history of the Federal Government’s knowledge and involvement surrounding unidentified anomalous phenomena.
(4) Legislation is necessary because credible evidence and testimony indicates that Federal Government unidentified anomalous phenomena records exist that have not been declassified or subject to mandatory declassification review as set forth in Executive Order 13526 (50 U.S.C. 3161 note; relating to classified national security information) due in part to exemptions under the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 (42 U.S.C. 2011 et seq.), as well as an over-broad interpretation of "transclassified foreign nuclear information", which is also exempt from mandatory declassification, thereby preventing public disclosure under existing provisions of law.

Chuck Schumer introducing this gives it a bit of legitimacy, vs some random kook.
Do they know something?
Its all because of the Grusch hearing/whistleblowing.
Maybe there are aliens, maybe not, but either way the DoD has been hiding things from congress which is a no-go.
Even with all that aside its nice to have some bipartisanship going on for once.
In the likely event of "not," conspiraturds will never believe it.
I'm pretty sure Beyonce exists, I just don't think she visited your house. Regardless of how many grainy photos you have of "unidentified people" driving by.
Exactly. To look at the mind-numbing vastness of just our galaxy let alone the hundreds of billions of others and think we're the only ones is the height of hubris. Are they here zipping around in little silver balls that defy all known laws of physics kidnapping hillbillies and mutilating cattle? No, that's conspiracy theory nonsense. Maybe the US government is being overzealous in classifying things, but that doesn't mean it's aliens, even if some guy with security clearance said, "Yeah, they're totally real. Trust me, guys."
It's got nothing to do with hubris. We don't know the probability of technological life developing.
There has been a lot of talk lately due to testimony given before Congress from a former Pentagon employee with the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office who claimed (second hand) that the USA had intact and partially intact alien vehicles
Now, in my opinion, just because someone has impressive credentials doesn't mean that they're not a loon. On the other hand, I feel that the results of any tax funded research into such matters should be fully public.
