Some quotes from the article.
A bipartisan group of House lawmakers made a public appeal for transparency over reports of unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) Thursday, after it was reported top leaders in both chambers were attempting to kill legislation related to the effort.
Interest in UAP sightings and has exploded since a July House hearing when three former Defense Department officials gave testimony on their experience with the phenomena, warning that the sightings could pose national security risks.
Included in that effort is a UAP-related amendment in the Senate’s version of the annual National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), a provision introduced by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Mike Rounds (R-S.D.).
The UAP Disclosure Act would require the release of government records on UAP no more than 25 years after their creation unless they are found to be of enough risk to national security that they require further classification. The act would also create an official UAP Records Collection and establish a review board for the office.
Edwards: Why the big secret? People are smart. They can handle it.
Kay : A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it. Fifteen hundred years ago everybody knew the Earth was the center of the universe. Five hundred years ago, everybody knew the Earth was flat, and fifteen minutes ago, you knew that humans were alone on this planet. Imagine what you’ll know tomorrow.

Who gives a fuck?
Schumer, Rounds, Gillibrand, Rubio, Moskowitz, Burchett, Gallagher, and the list of bipartisan elected officials goes on.
Sorry, I meant ‘why should we give a fuck?’ Every release about UFOs is ‘we can explain a lot of sightings, but there are some we can’t.’ Big fucking deal.
Because our government should be open and transparent about things wherever possible. Governments should be able to keep some secrets for true National Security reasons, but others should be able to be seen by the public
They’ve been open and transparent. And they say the same things every single time.
UFO conspiracists demanding transparency remind me of crypto people demanding regulatory clarity: They’ve gotten it but they don’t like the answers so they pretend they haven’t.
If you have the time to watch the press conference, Moskowitz, a dem, had some insightful thoughts on why he thinks they aren’t actually being transparent. But either way, as Rubio stated, either this is true or we have a lot of crazy people at the highest levels of government saying it is. Either way it’s a question that begs for an answer. Schumer’s amendment should help us all get to the bottom of it and stop the speculation.
