Federal agencies would have to release UAP records on public websites. They would have 270 days after the bill becomes law to do it. Congress would get progress reports every three months after the first report.
Modern Action explains legislation in plain English, helps you choose whether to support, oppose, or ask for changes, and drafts a message tied to the bill, your stance, and the elected officials who can act on it.
UAP Transparency Act is a House bill in committee. The latest recorded action: Referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
Latest action on H.R. 1187: Referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.
Who this affects: This bill mainly affects federal agencies that hold UAP records and people who want to see those records. Agencies would have to find, review, declassify, and post their UAP files. Researchers, journalists, and interested members of the public could get direct access to original records. Congress would get regular reports on whether agencies are following the law.
Why this matters: This bill matters because it could make many government UAP records public for the first time. People who study UAP, aviation safety, science, or government secrecy could get more original material to review. Congress could also track whether agencies are using classification fairly in this area. The bill leaves some important details open, including how agencies should handle national security, privacy, and redactions.
You do not have to start with a blank letter. Modern Action turns the bill, your position, and the relevant congressional context into a message you can edit and send. The goal is to make contacting Congress clear, specific, and useful without forcing you to parse bill text or figure out the right office on your own.
