Story summary

Rep. Eric Burlison of Missouri joined filmmaker James Fox, journalist Leslie Kean, and former Air Force intelligence officer David Grusch in calling for the US government to release information about UFO sightings. The advocates argue that if another country releases evidence first, the U.S. should explain why Americans might learn about it from a "crappy sunken island." They question why the public is not being given access to potential historic information regarding encounters with non-human intelligence. The group's request comes as a coalition is now seeking such information, raising concerns over whether Washington will protect national security while also addressing public curiosity and right-to-know issues.
