U.S. House of Representatives · 2024-01-11 · 8 pages · text from the file's own layer

H.R. 6967, the Safe Airspace for Americans Act, was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives on January 11, 2024 by Rep. Robert Garcia of California with five cosponsors. The bill would require the FAA Administrator to set up procedures for civilian aviation personnel to report, archive and investigate unidentified anomalous phenomena, and to share those reports with the Pentagon's All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office. It also protects pilots' medical and airman certificates and bars reprisals against people who report UAP.
