Eric Burlison offers revised amendment for a UAP records collection at the U.S. National Archives
U.S. Representative Eric Burlison offers a revised amendment to the House version of the National Defense Authorization Act. The proposal would establish a central collection of government UAP records at the National Archives and Records Administration and set rules for their transfer, preservation, indexing, and public availability.
Background
The proposal, marked “Rules #1044 Revised,” would establish an “Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Records Collection” at the U.S. National Archives. Government offices would be required to identify relevant records and prepare them for transfer, while publicly disclosed records would also be made available digitally. The document establishes that an amendment was offered, not that it was adopted or enacted.
Significance
The amendment is timeline-relevant because it documents a concrete new congressional attempt to preserve, centrally index, and provide public access to UAP records.
