President Donald Trump has reportedly given his backing to a request that could grant congressional access to some of the United States’ most highly classified facilities linked to UFO investigations. The move has renewed public interest in long‑running questions about whether the government possesses undisclosed information about extraterrestrial life.
For decades, the Pentagon and other federal agencies have maintained that there is no confirmed physical evidence of alien visitors. At the same time, several whistleblowers have testified before Congress, alleging that secret programs may have concealed recovered materials and data related to unexplained aerial encounters.
Missouri Congressman Eric Burlison, who sits on a congressional oversight panel examining Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAPs), has said he received approval to visit a number of sensitive sites associated with past UFO investigations. According to Burlison, this approval came after he formally requested access with support from Trump and his team. This development comes amid other recent controversies involving Trump, including the public reaction to the Melania film controversy and shocking incidents reported on Fox News.
The facilities Burlison hopes to visit reportedly include highly restricted military locations that have long been associated with UFO rumors and classified research. Among them is Area 51, the Nevada base that has fueled speculation for decades. Other sites often mentioned in public claims include Wright‑Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio, Naval Air Station Patuxent River in Maryland, and the Atlantic Undersea Test and Evaluation Center (AUTEC) in the Bahamas. His request parallels other instances of high-profile scrutiny of Trump’s actions, such as his chilling threat to Iran and controversial political maneuvers.
During an appearance on the ALN Podcast, Burlison explained that the White House had instructed the Department of Defense to cooperate with his request as much as possible. He said the goal was to examine locations where unusual craft, materials, biological evidence, or archived records are rumored to exist, while acknowledging that any access would still be limited by classification rules.
Burlison also referenced claims about a massive object allegedly stored outside the United States, stating that he could not disclose details due to security restrictions. He described it as a potential long‑term objective rather than an immediate visit.
In earlier remarks reported by media outlets, Burlison suggested that Trump had been briefed on alleged UFO recoveries dating back decades. These claims remain unverified and have not been confirmed by official government statements. The situation mirrors other sensational developments in Trump’s post‑presidency era, including his bizarre Valentine’s Day email and his predicted political comeback.
The renewed attention comes amid speculation that additional government information about UAPs could be released later this year. If that happens, the congressional committee may gain access to further documentation related to non‑human intelligence claims.
Burlison has said he was originally skeptical about UFO reports but reconsidered after hearing testimony from whistleblower David Grusch in 2023. He later helped connect Grusch with members of Congress, contributing to public hearings that included accounts from current and former military personnel.
Whether these efforts will lead to concrete evidence or simply more questions remains to be seen, but the issue continues to attract bipartisan interest and public curiosity.
