Government employees who are UFO witnesses may soon break their silence

More U.S. military and government officials with knowledge of, or experience with UFOs, are expected to come out of the shadows soon.

That’s because the annual Defense Authorization Bill will likely include language allowing current and former government employees and federal contractors to share what they know about UFOs — or what the federal government prefers to call unidentified aerial phenomena, or UAPs — without fear of reprisal.


UFO investigator and author Richard Lang said he’s in touch with people who have knowledge about the phenomenon that they want to share, when the time is right.

“If that language survives Congress and ends up being part of the act, then these guys are saying they’re going to start talking about stuff that’s happened,” Lang said. “A lot of them are going to start talking.”
