Original Title: Daniel Sheehan: "I had a long conversation with a Senator, and I recommended him to meet with Senator Tom Cotton (new head of Senate Intelligence Committee) to get them to reintroduce the UAP Disclosure Act, the entire 64-page bill". So the UAPDA is still not dead.
Posted by Daniel Sheehan on X:
I had a long conversation with a United States Senator who called and I recommended that he go visit with Senator Tom Cotton, who is now going to be the new head of the Senate Intelligence Committee, to get them to reintroduce Senate Bill 2226 that was passed by the United States Senate in 2023, setting out the 64-page bill, to set up an entire set of protocols for a Controlled Disclosure process that would reveal all of the information on UFOs/UAP that exists.
Also contains a video of the interview.
So this UAP Disclosure Act is still not dead. Even though it did not get added as an amendment to the NDAA, it seems there are other ways to get this bill passed.
But I have no idea how stuff works in Congress, whether this actually increases the likelyhood of it being passed, or that its a desperate death rattle.
Who knows more about this?
The UAP Disclosure Act
Last year Chuck Schumer said this about the UAPDA:
The American public has a right to learn about technologies of unknown origins, non-human intelligence, and unexplainable phenomena
The 64-page bill can be read here (pdf). Some quotes:
NON-HUMAN INTELLIGENCE: The term "non-human intelligence" means any sentient intelligent non-human lifeform regardless of nature or ultimate origin that may be presumed responsible for unidentified anomalous phenomena or of which the Federal Government has become aware.
LEGACY PROGRAM: The term "legacy program" means all Federal, State, and local government, commercial industry, academic, and private sector endeavors to collect, exploit, or reverse engineer technologies of unknown origin or examine biological evidence of living or deceased non-human intelligence that pre-dates the date of the enactment of this Act.
QUALIFICATIONS: Except as provided in subparagraph (B), a person appointed to the staff of the Review Board shall be a citizen of integrity and impartiality who has had no previous or current involvement with any legacy program or controlling authority relating to the collection, exploitation, or reverse engineering of technologies of unknown origin or the examination of biological evidence of living or deceased non-human intelligence.
