Grusch and U.S. lawmakers call for UAP transparency at Capitol press conference
The press conference combined calls for whistleblower immunity and record releases with striking statements by David Grusch and Leslie Kean about alleged retrieval programs, biological material and non-human intelligence. The attached transcript shows how lawmakers and disclosure advocates framed the UAP issue as a problem of oversight, secrecy and constitutional accountability.

Background
The attached transcript shows the press conference as a sharper political event: it was not only about releasing individual UFO/UAP files, but about whistleblower immunity, alleged outsourced programs, congressional oversight and whether biological evidence of non-human intelligence can legitimately remain classified.
Anna Paulina Luna framed the next step as protection for insiders: “We are requesting that whistleblower receive temporary immunity or permanent immunity” if they can provide information about “locations of craft and or advanced technologies.”
Eric Burlison described a concrete congressional oversight problem: “We continue to receive credible claims of recovered craft and reverse engineering programs that may have operated for decades outside of any oversight.”
Scott Perry put the ownership question bluntly: “this isn't the government's information... this is our information. We should have it every single bit of it.” His argument was that, absent a direct national security risk, the information belongs to the public rather than to the bureaucracy.
Leslie Kean shifted the emphasis from technology to biology. She recalled Grusch's 2023 sworn reference to “non human biologics” and argued: “Knowledge that we are not alone does not belong to any government or military, it belongs to all of humanity.”
David Grusch made the most consequential claims. He said the topic goes “beyond life in the universe” and involves “homeland security and aerospace safety.” In his official duties, he said he was exposed to information concerning “foreign adversary, UAP crash retrieval, exploitation study efforts” and “US held audiovisual information related to crash retrieval matters such as the recovered vehicles and the associated biological material.” He also alleged hidden funding “to the tune of billions of dollars per annum.”
Asked what kinds of non-human beings he meant, Grusch answered: “It's a continuum from a corporeal bipedal type life to... sentient plasma life,” adding that there were “several” forms known to the U.S. government. This is not publicly proven evidence; it is a claim made by Grusch. It is nevertheless event-relevant because it pushes the press conference beyond records disclosure and into allegations about non-human biology and intelligence.
The event's importance therefore lies not in new evidence presented on stage, but in the combination of political pressure, explicit calls for immunity, quoted claims about retrieval and reverse-engineering programs, and Grusch's renewed assertion that U.S. government information exists concerning recovered vehicles, biological material and multiple forms of non-human intelligence.
Significance
The event is relevant to the timeline because it places Grusch's 2023 claims into a new political context involving U.S. lawmakers and a declassification task force, with explicit demands for UAP records release.
