Today, after President Trump announced that he is directing his administration to release files related to unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs), U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand released the following statement:
“This is good news, and I am encouraged to see the president lend his support to this effort. I have been pushing for years for increased disclosure and transparency around UAPs. My work to establish and strengthen the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office has already brought about significant progress in improving interagency coordination, data collection, and engagement with the public, but there is still more to be done and the American people’s interest in UAPs only continues to grow. I urge the administration to follow through on this directive and I will keep fighting to elevate this issue in Congress so that we can reduce the stigma around reporting and ensure UAP records are being properly disclosed and made public.”
