New “UAP Transparency Act” aims to ensure full UFO disclosure
Things could soon get very interesting for UFO disclosure advocates, thanks to a new congressional bill introduced by Rep. Tim Burchett this week.
The bill, titled ‘The UAP Transparency Act,’ aims to compel the US government to release all of its files related to unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs), commonly known as UFOs.
At only 1.5 pages in length, the bill is concise but its implications are significant. If passed, it would require the President of the United States to mandate that all government agencies release their UFO-related documents to the public.
Additionally, the bill stipulates that quarterly reports must be filed to update both the House and Senate on the progress of this disclosure.
Rep. Burchett is no stranger to advocating for UFO transparency. He has long pushed for the release of government files pertaining to the phenomenon.
“It’s simple. They spend all this time telling us they don’t exist, then release the files, dagnabbit,” he said during an interview with Fox News.
“I don’t want some crazy, fancy name for it, I just want them to do exactly what the bill is about.”
Burchett’s push for transparency is not necessarily about confirming the existence of extraterrestrial life, but rather about government accountability and spending.
“Like I said before, it’s not about little green men or flying saucers,” he told Fox News in April.
“It’s about tens of millions of dollars that our federal government is spending on something that at least some of the members of the federal government say does not exist. Yet, they will not release all the files.”
In recent years, there have been several high-profile releases of previously classified information, including videos and reports from the Pentagon, which have only fueled further speculation and demand for full disclosure.
