Description

Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) has recently escalated his calls for total transparency regarding Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP/UFOs), arguing that the American public deserves to know how "tens of millions" of their tax dollars are being spent on research that some federal agencies continue to deny.

In a series of statements in early April 2026—notably on Newsmax and following discussions with President Donald Trump—Burchett expressed outrage over the control unelected bureaucrats exert over UFO-related information.
