New UAP Language In The Compromised National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2024

The new NDAA was filed this evening. The UAP language, although is still in there, is drastically different than originally proposed.
Here is a PDF of the UAP related pages as it stands in the filing on December 6, 2023:

Subtitle C—Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena – Section 1841-1850:

Limitation on Use of Funds for Certain Unreported Programs – Section 1687:

Funding Limitations Relating to Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena – Section 7343:

Joint Explanatory Statement Page Excerpts on Section 1687 and Subtitle C (Highlighted for easier viewing):

Note: A Joint Explanatory Statement accompanying the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) is a document that explains the compromises and agreements reached between the House and Senate on various aspects of the legislation. Although it is not a statutory law and does not have the force of law, this statement is significant as it provides guidance on how the legislation should be interpreted and implemented by the executive branch. The executive branch often uses this statement as a reference to understand Congress’s intent behind specific provisions of the NDAA, in hopes that the implementation aligns with legislative expectations.
