The text enacted in the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2024: the collection of UAP records at the National Archives

National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2024 – conference text, Subtitle C «Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena» (secs. 1841–1843)

United States Congress – House–Senate conference on the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2024 (NDAA) · Dec 6, 2023 · USA · Law

Original available

Excerpt of the conference text read in The Black Vault's copy; it matches the description on the National Archives FAQ page, which points to the enrolled bill on congress.gov and cites the codification at 44 U.S.C. 2107 note.

What it contains
Sections 1841–1843 require the National Archives (NARA) to create a collection with copies of all government, government-provided or government-funded records relating to UAP, technologies of unknown origin and non-human intelligence, and set out the review, transmission and grounds for postponing publication. It is what remains of the UAP Disclosure Act: the conference text eliminated the review board appointed by the president and the taking of federal custody of recovered technologies held by private parties.
What it shows and what it does not
It documents that Congress created a permanent channel for UAP records, today Record Group 615 at the National Archives, but without the powers that the sponsors considered decisive. It says nothing about the existence of non-human materials: the law requires records to be transferred, whatever they contain.
How it came to light
Pages of the text agreed in conference, dated December 6, 2023 and hosted by The Black Vault; the final text is that of the enrolled bill (H.R. 2670) on congress.gov.
