An unprecedented gathering of experts and witnesses will hold a citizen hearing about extraterrestrials engaging the human race, at the National Press Club (NPC) in Washington, D.C. from April 29 to May 3.

The U.S. Congress has not conducted an official hearing on the subject since 1968, in spite of much evidence and credible witnesses, according to Stephen Bassett, Executive Director of Paradigm Research Group. The Paradigm Research Group is an advocacy organization pursuing public awareness and open congressional hearings regarding an alien presence on earth.

To facilitate disclosure by the U.S. government, “We will hold a hearing that they won’t hold,” said Bassett at a press conference at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year.

For the five day hearing, the main ballroom of the National Press Club (NPC) in Washington, D.C. will be converted to look like a Senate hearing room. The Hearing Committee will include former Senator Mike Gravel (D-Alaska), former Congresswomen Darlene Hooley (D-Ore.), Carolyn Kilpatrick (D-Mich.), Lynn Woolsey (D-Calif.), and former Congressman Merrill Cook (R-Utah). They will hear testimonies from 30-40 witnesses and grill them for answers.
