Connecticut Bill Aims to Create a Statewide UAP Research Center with UConn Partnership
To the point
Rep. Joe Hoxha’s HB 5422 would create a statewide UAP research center by partnering UConn with state agencies to study unidentified aerial phenomena, with Rep. Aundre Bumgardner as a bipartisan sponsor, Yale PhD student Sri Tata backing, and Rep. Martin Foncello proposing collaboration with federal investigators, modeled on New Jersey’s 2024 approach to collect and report data in an objective, non-fringe way amid ongoing national UAP discussions.
