Government Restrictions on UAP Disclosure

In his testimony to Congress, Elizondo outlined his encounters with governmental restrictions. He shared that he had signed non-disclosure agreements three years ago, limiting his capacity to discuss the UAP crash retrieval initiatives in detail.

Non-Disclosure Agreements and Information Security
Elizondo conveyed that the government had provided him with documentation imposing further restrictions on disclosing details about crash retrievals. This documentation is securely stored within a sensitive compartmented information facility (SCIF), meaning Elizondo does not possess a personal copy. He acknowledged the existence of U.S. contractors potentially involved in these programs and confirmed instances of injuries related to UAP interactions.
“That’s why I think we’re here — again — because I’ve seen the documentation by the U.S. government for several of these individuals who have sustained injuries as the result of a UAP incident.” – Luis Elizondo
Government employees affected by these interactions have been placed on leave and compensated accordingly. His request to discuss more candid information in a closed session was based on a need for secure, private discussions due to the sensitive nature of the data.

Congressional Reaction to Testimony
Representative Nancy Mace articulated her frustration toward the government’s secretive stance regarding UAP-related activities and expenditures. Mace expressed concern on behalf of taxpayers, questioning the validity and necessity of maintaining such a high level of secrecy if UAPs are indeed a cover-up.
Mace criticized the use of taxpayer dollars to conceal information from the public and called for increased transparency concerning UAP activities. This demand reflects a broader call for accountability and openness regarding this controversial subject.
