Link to Senator Schumer’s remarks about the amendment for those without Twitter.

CONGRESS UPDATE:
The U.S. Senate today (July 18, 2023) moved the FY 2024 National Defense Authorization Act (S. 2226) through its first procedural gate, 72-25. The new Schumer-Rounds Amendment (“UAP Disclosure Act”) was added to the bill without objection, after which Sen. Schumer made brief remarks about the bipartisan amendment. Aside from the new Schumer-Rounds measure, the NDAA contains important committee-approved provisions dealing with possible UAP-related special access programs that have not been reported to Congress.
The Senate still has many other amendments to resolve, some quite contentious, before the NDAA will be ripe for a vote on passage. Stay tuned.
I have updated my June 24 Mirador article on the legislation to reflect the latest developments.
