I couldn’t cross post it, so I figured I’d post this here too. I hope this info is helpful to anyone doing reach out today! I figured it would be helpful to know some of the people we recently learned about!
PURPOSE OF THIS POST
I know we all believe we can do this! I think everyone agrees we need to be reaching out to the NDAA Conferees ASAP and letting them know we want the UAPDA and Burchett Amendment in their entirety! According to Danny Sheehan, the deadline is December 21st for the conferees to figure this out. Maybe we can apply more pressure to speed this up. It would be embarrassing if we aren’t apart of the global disclosure stance some of the other countries are taking. I think catastrophic disclosure would be bad. Congress needs to get their act together and root out the opposition. This post contains credible people, bipartisan quotes, and Conferee information for the week!
THE BIPARTISAN MESSAGING AND CREDIBLE PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT THIS
The Bipartisan Press Conference was telling. I believe that there is alot of political capital invested in combining the two amendments to get disclosure moving. Both sides of the aisle are focused on getting to the bottom of where the hell is the money going? UAP Caucus has been spearheading pro-Disclosure efforts in the House of Representatives. The Senate UAPDA push was extremely bipartisan as well. The hearings where David Grusch, David Fravor, and Ryan Graves gave testimony impacted many users as well.
There has been a TON of credible people talking about this stuff.
WHY I SEE THE UAPDA AND BURCHETT AMENDMENT COMBINING WITH NO CHANGES
– Congressman Jared Moskowitz: “The Pushback We Got Is What Interested Me”
– Congressman Eric Burlison: “It’s time for Tim’s amendment to be passed and as well as the Schumer amendment….It’s my belief that both of them will put us in a better place.”
– Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna: “We need the UAP Disclosure Act….Representative’s Burchett’s language should be added.”
– Congressman Tim Burchett: paraphrasing from Steve Bassett: Cong. Burchett’s Amendment was not intended to replace the UAP Disclosure Act. Rather, it was to provide some more direct language to augment extremely complexity Senate bill.
– Congressman Matt Gaetz: “We had an NDAA Conference meeting yesterday, where members of the house and senate both raised this issue in debate. The strongest resistance to transparency and disclosure and the Burchett language, has come from the House Intelligence Committee”
Explicitly saying: no pushback from Schumer or Senate/House Democrat on Burchett Language. I believe we can advocate for both, In their entirety. And we should NOT WAIVER on ANYTHING. Call and email your reps to implement both amendments in the final NDAA and get this show on the road.
I saved my favorite for last, her video that I linked below is incredible.
– Congresswoman Nancy Mace: “What you see on TV is one thing.. What you see behind the scenes is another. After the UAP Hearing ALOT of members were very interested and intrigued, and wanted more information. They want to get in a SCIF, they want to find out, they want to go read classified briefings. But what you get and see publicly, is a mockery, making a mockery of people who have seen UAPs or UFOs or whatever you want to call them. So basically we’re going to mock our men and women in uniform? No we’re not. We shouldn’t do that, we shouldn’t be afraid to broach a subject. Whether its real or not real, your money your tax dollars are being spent on it. We ought to know what’s going on.”
And these are just a few of the most recent examples!
Bonus: jab from Burchett at Kirkpatrick
OPPOSITION THAT HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED
– Mike Rogers – Even Garry Nolan doesn’t like this guy..
– Radiance Technologies, Travis Taylor, and Jay Stratton
NDAA CONFERENCE
The next step is for a Bi-Cameral NDAA Conference Committee to reconcile both the House and Senate version of the bill. The conferees are members from the House Armed Services Committees and some Ranking Members from other committees. The conference Is meant to reconcile both NDAAs into one big document using reps from across both sides of Congress to figure it out.
The Senate passed the UAPDA 75-25 in their NDAA, but the House didn’t have anything to say about it. The Conferees will get together and reconcile the NDAA. This is far from over, in a good way. Continue to advocate for the UAPDA, IAA AARO UAP Provisions, and you guessed it THE BURCHETT AMENDMENT. We should advocate for ALL UAP/NHI RELATED LEGISLATION TO BE PASSED AS IS. There is no reason to give up anything here.
NDAA 2024 CONFERENCE COMMITTEE MEMBERS

Core conferees are typically members of the House Armed Services Committee or the Senate Armed Services Committee, as these committees are directly responsible for drafting the NDAA. They have a direct role in the negotiation and drafting of the final conference report, which is the agreed-upon version of the bill that both the House and Senate vote on.
