Chuck Schumer
U.S. Senator (D-NY); former Senate Majority Leader, Minority Leader as of 2025. Co-author with mike-rounds of the original 2023 uap-disclosure-act (UAPDA) including its Records Review Board and recovered-material provisions.
UAP record
- Dec 2023 floor colloquy with mike-rounds pledging to keep pushing UAPDA Review Board and recovered-material provisions despite their dilution in conference (cited in src-uap-transparency-stalls-2025-12).
- 2024–2025: src-uap-transparency-stalls-2025-12 reports Schumer has been “relatively muted” on UAP transparency since the colloquy; sources attribute the shift to loss of Majority Leader gavel, left-flank pressure, and alleged threats to Senate staff.
- Schumer cites late Sen. harry-reid as a personal mentor on UAP transparency.
