UFOs, Fort Bragg and defense spending: What National Defense Authorization Act says

Fort Bragg will see more than $27.2 million in military construction projects from the defense spending bill signed into law last week, a bill that also includes funding to cover changes to military sexual assault investigations and directs the Pentagon to investigate instances of UFOs.

The $768.2 billion National Defense Authorization Act, which outlines defense spending and policy changes, was signed Dec. 27, by President Joe Biden.

Republican Sen. Thom Tillis, who is a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said that a top priority is ensuring that Fort Bragg and North Carolina’s other military installations “have the support and resources they continue to play a critical role in protecting our nation.”

According to a news release from Tillis, projects for Fort Bragg include $19.5 million for a microgrid that will use existing and new generators and $7.7 million for an emergency water system.

UFOs
The act requires the secretary of defense and national intelligence director to establish an office “to address unidentified aerial phenomena”

The office will be tasked with evaluating the “links between unidentified aerial phenomena and adversarial foreign governments,” recovering materials and determining if the objects cause medical effects.

Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Florida, who co-sponsored the legislation, said that reporting on unidentified aerial phenomenal should be destigmatized “particularly from military aviators.”
