On Wednesday, July 26, the US House of Representatives will hear testimony about UFOs. There will be testimony from three witnesses regarding UAP, or unidentified anomalous phenomena. The National Security, Border, and Foreign Affairs Subcommittee of the House will conduct the hearing. Former members of the US military and intelligence community who claimed to have come into touch with physics-defying craft are among those who are likely to testify.

“The US government’s status quo has been to withhold information about UAPs from the American public”
Ryan Graves and David Fravor, two former US Navy aviators, will both give testimony. David Grusch, a former combat officer and longtime member of the Pentagon’s intelligence community, is also scheduled to give testimony. He claimed to have obtained “extensive classified information about deeply covert programs that, in his opinion, have recovered intact and partially intact craft of non-human origin.” According to some members of the US Congress, UFO/UAP knowledge actually exists and has been hidden from the public. “The Pentagon and Washington bureaucrats have kept this information hidden for decades, and we’re finally going to shed some light on it,” Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) said in a House Committee on Oversight and Reform statement. “We’re bringing in credible witnesses who can provide public testimony because the American people deserve the truth. We’re done with the cover-ups.”
The Department of Defence established the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) in 2022 at the request of Congress in order to look into UAP claims. “The US government’s status quo has been to withhold information about UAPs from the American public, refuse to respond to inquiries from whistleblowers, downplay American concerns about potential threats UAPs may pose to our national security and public safety, and fall back on extreme and unnecessary over-classification. The past two months have taught me that Americans care about this subject if there is anything I have learned from them. Additionally, it affects the degree of openness and responsibility that our government must demonstrate toward the people it represents. I look forward to bringing this topic to light,” said Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.).
