This Clinton Presidential Library FOIA release (2006-0483-F), taken from Scheduling Office records, contains Steven M. Greer's CSETI correspondence with the White House. Greer's 15 November 1996 letter asks President Clinton for a meeting before a planned UN disclosure event. A memo sent to senior officials says witnesses would testify publicly unless told by 1 January 1997 that security oaths still bind them. Greer's enclosed briefings claim ET craft were retrieved in 1947. The White House declined the meeting on 6 December 1996.
CSETI Steven M. Greer M.D. - International Director · 15 November 1996 To: President William Jefferson Clinton Vice President Al Gore National Security Advisor Tony Lake Secretary of Defense William Perry Secretary of State Warren Christopher DCI John Deutch General Shalikashvili, Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff Mr. Arlen Specter, Chairman, Senate Intelligence Committee Mr. Larry Combast, Chairman, House Intelligence Committee Mr. Strom Thurmond, Chairman, Senate Armed Services Committee Mr. Floyd Spence, Chairman, House National Security Committee Dr. Daniel Golden, Director of NASA FBI Director Louis Freeh Attorney General Janet Reno From: Steven M. Greer M.D., Director of CSETI RE: Planned Disclosure on the UFO/Extraterrestrial Subject and National Security Oaths The CSETI (Center for the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence) Project Starlight initiative has now identified several dozen former and current military, intelligence and defense contractor related witnesses to UFO/ETI events and projects. As set out in a number of documents and briefings (see enclosures) it is our intention to have these important witnesses provide open, public testimony on this matter in the very near future. In the summer of 1995, we requested that the President take appropriate steps to allow these witnesses to speak openly, without civil, military or other penalties. Since then, there has been an exponential growth in the number of such witnesses who wish to come forward. Some of them are elderly, and suffering from serious medical conditions. We feel that these patriotic and courageous heros of our country - who very much wish to tell their fellow citizens the truth on this matter- must not take this information to their graves. Therefore, we are asking from you a clear determination regarding their freedom to speak openly on this subject. Over the past three years, we have found that members of Congress, the Executive Branch, military and intelligence leaders have not been briefed on this important matter, and that operations related to the subject exist as 'unacknowledged' special access projects.
