“American people expect and deserve” it, the committee chair says.
The House Intelligence Committee’s Counterterrorism, Counterintelligence, and Counterproliferation Subcommittee will hold a public hearing on UFOs next Tuesday. For the first time in decades, Congress is pressing the Pentagon and other national security agencies for more answers on reports of mysterious aircraft violating protected airspace.
Five months ago, the National Defense Authorization Act required the military to establish a permanent UFO research office and take a series of other steps to collect and investigate reports of “unidentified aerial phenomena“ (UAPs).
“The American people expect and deserve their leaders in government and intelligence to seriously evaluate and respond to any potential national security risks — especially those we do not fully understand,” the panel chair, Representative André Carson of Indiana, stated on Tuesday. “Since coming to Congress, I’ve been focused on the issue of unidentified aerial phenomena as both a national security threat and an interest of great importance to the American public.”
Testifying before the panel will be Ronald Moultrie, the Pentagon’s top intelligence official, and Scott Bray, the deputy director of naval intelligence.
The hearing, Representative Carson said, “will give the American people an opportunity to learn what there is to know about these incidents.”
As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…
- For leaders in the Department of Defense as they responded regarding how much of a threat UAPs may pose to national security.
- For wisdom for members of Congress as they assess the importance of investigating unidentified aerial phenomena.
- For the Americans to recognize the Lord reigns over the origins and intents of the unexplained aerial phenomena.
