Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) has been a prominent advocate for increased transparency regarding Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs). As Vice Chair of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, he has played a pivotal role in pushing for the declassification of UAP-related information. In February 2023, Rubio, alongside Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), led a bipartisan effort to secure full funding for the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), the Department of Defense's office dedicated to investigating UAPs. They emphasized the importance of robust funding to ensure AARO's success and longevity. Rubio has also highlighted the significance of whistleblower accounts in advancing UAP investigations. In June 2023, he revealed that high-ranking government officials with top security clearances have come forward, claiming firsthand knowledge of UAP-related activities, including the retrieval of non-human craft. He stressed the need to take these accounts seriously and to prioritize transparency on the issue. Rubio's efforts have been instrumental in bringing bipartisan attention to the UAP issue, advocating for greater transparency, and ensuring that the U.S. government addresses public concerns regarding unidentified aerial phenomena.
